Abstract: Research was done to determine whether or not honey bees prefer flowers of the Epilobium canum plant within a moderate range of color red intensity. This research is significant because it enables us to understand more about bee behavior, and, not to mention, it will aid farmers in crop production to select the most efficient pollinators for specific types of crops. E. canum plants were surveyed and later used to calculate the proportion of the color red per flowers for each plant…

Bee movie, A bonafide modern classic. In the early 2000s we were all concerned about the disappearing bees, both in the mystery and in the potential economic and environmental impact. The White house formed a committee to investigate the issue, and several documentary such as the silence of the bees arose to inform the public. The mysterious death and disappearance of bees, known as colony collapse disorder or CCD is even more mysterious in that the face that underlying cause is unknown. Some…

In my freshman year of college, I researched and prepared a speech for my communications class about the Colony Collapse Disorder affecting bees and what it could mean for the plants and animals reliant on pollinators. Just recently, bees became the newest addition to endangered species list causing increased concern over the vitality of our ecosystems if the humble insect were to be eradicated altogether. While few news organizations have written about the placement of bees on the list, one…

Bees are the world's top pollinators. There are over 20,000 different kinds of bees, and they are unfortunately dying off due to the increase of pesticides. Pollinators transfer pollen and seeds from one flower to another, fertilizing the plant so it can grow and produce food. These insects are responsible for pollinating one third of the world's crops. Bees need to live without these inorganic forms of pesticides, so that they can produce honey and pollinate crops. These healthy bees were…

“Scientists Have Some Wild Ideas for Solving Our Big Bee Problem” The science disciplines this article presents are the study of applied environmental and animal science. Environmental science is the study of the environment and what affects it and animal science is the study of a role of an animal, which is why the article “Scientists Have Some Wild Ideas for Solving Our Big Bee Problem” its categorized under these disciplines because it is describing what in the bees do in the environment…

Albert Einstein once stated, “if the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe then man would only have four years of life left. No more bees, no more pollination, no more plants, no more animals, no more man.” It is vital that everyone be informed about the problem with the bee population and the need to take action to save the bees. SOS-Bees is a denomination of Greenpeace which, according to their mission statement, is the “leading independent campaigning organization that uses peaceful…

Hummingbirds What are hummingbirds? Hummingbirds are birds from the Americas that make up the family of Trochilidae. Trochilidae is the scientific name for these birds and are among the smallest of birds with lifespan of three to five years. Hummingbirds are also very colorful birds with iridescent feathers. The colors they have are blue, green, yellow, and pink. The name ‘hummingbird’ comes from the fact that their wings flap so fast, that it makes a humming noise. These magnificent birds…

“If the bee disappeared off the face of the earth, man would only have four years left to live.” –Albert Einstein The bee plays an important part in our developing world, and is what I will be talking about today. I will tell you the different roles of bees, and what is happening worldwide that should scare and even frighten you. Bees are specialized insects that gather pollen and nectar from flowers, they are called pollinators. They play an existentially important role in our daily lives and…

Have you ever thought about the details how honey bees are good for the environment? Well, you might I'm one day, let me tell you some. The main ideas that I’m going to be telling you are how honey bees are good for you and the environment. In this essay I will argue that humans should just leave the animal alone and don't bother them and just leave them in the natural habitat they should just leave them in their natural habitat because there will be fewer accidents that happen because I think…

Misunderstood, treated, and taken for granted. One of earth’s greatest assets is deserting its domain. Collectively, humans around the globe need to take responsibility for the declining honey bee populations, and aid in their rehabilitation by limiting human and natural impacts on its richness. Bees are commonly known for their role in pollination, as well as producing honey and beeswax. Impacting biotic life to the extent that this decline will lead to death among species that have come…
