tiny creatures, we would suffer a great loss in produce. Throughout this paper, we will explore what a honeybee is, it’s job, and how we can stop its extinction. The western honey bee is a member of the Apidae family. There are over 20,000 known species of bees; the western honey bee is the most popular of the bee species. The western honeybee is a small insect covered in black and yellow stripes. Honeybees can come in many different colors depending on their species, but most bees are…

for the bee population. Starting at six days old, young bees start to feed younger larvae in their hive. The adult bees do other tasks such as scavenging for the other honeybees. In a hive, there is no simple hierarchy, unlike human beings who have business hierarchies for large businesses. Each bee does something to benefit another bee. The queen may be valuable, because there is only one in each hive, but the queen does not rule the hive. Worker bees send orders by signaling to the queen bee…

insects in the world. Though one of the most fascinating species is the bee. Honey bees are well known for living in hives. They are also known for being one of the world’s biggest pollinator. The honey bee is one of the most well known specie of bee, and a well known pollinator. They are separated into different classes by what they do and their appearance. They live interesting lives, but what is life like inside a honey bee hive? I.what is a beehive? A. In the world there’s more species of…

“King P?” cried his troops. “King P?” The Pollinators were being invaded my evil King Felix and the Zecks. Every time the low hum was to be heard, that meant trouble. “Into place! Now! Get your stingers ready to barricade the Pollinators!” “Yes Sir,” the Zecks replied on the demand. This was the third time in one week, that the evil was attempting to stampede the North Willow. For the first time, they glided right past their tree, and tried talking to the honey bee’s. “Oh, their colony is…

social media and covering all types of products lately. Brands, such as Honey Nut Cheerios with their disappearing Buzz the bee mascot, have recently began encouraging citizens of the world to contribute to saving honeybees so they will not face extinction. However, are the companies misinforming society on the real status of the bees? On the Cheerios’ website, two specifically bee-related facts are mentioned before they state “more than two thirds of the world’s crop species rely on…

parts are the head, thorax, and abdomen. The thorax is the middle part of the bee that is between the head and abdomen. In the thorax is where the two pairs of wings and six legs get support from. Do you know how many wings a bee has? The answer is four. Two wings are attached in the front and two wings are attached in the back of the thorax. The wings are hooked together when the bee flies and they only separate when the bee is at rest. This is why it seems like bees only have two wings when we…

Establishing a beehive is not as easy as capturing a few bees buzzing around your flower garden and expecting them to take to your hive. To begin, you will need more than just a few bees if you want the hive to thrive. The best way is to obtain a large quantity of bees, but the question remains as to how. Surprisingly, getting honeybees is not all that difficult, but there are a few methods that are regularly undertaken to obtain the bees needed. As a novice beekeeper, you should probably leave…

insects, bees are facing the unprecedented challenge; their population has been dramatically decreasing since 1971, especially between 2006 and 2007. The main reasons can be attributed to the suburb’s urbanization, pesticides, pests and decrease of bee farms. Because of this unusual reduction, most scientists call this phenomenon Colony Collapse Disorder. Their importance to life on earth and micro-economy are two reasons people need to protect…

According to Wayne Ellwood “A quarter of all US beekeepers had suffered losses and more than 30 percent of all bee colonies in the country were completely wiped out” Even though bees play a major part in the world for pollinating there has been a major decline in the population. From increased uses of pesticides, insecticide and fungicides being used of crops and gardens the bees who pollinate are picking up those chemicals. Thus bringing it back to the colony and possibly poisoning the whole…

average of 30% of all honey bee colonies dies each winter. We rely on bees to pollinate 90% of the world's food and to increase the yield by up to 30%. Many fruits and vegetables would become scarce and prohibitively expensive without the bees. If bees became extinct most of our food will no longer exist and if it did, it wouldn't be very affordable. Scientists have pointed out several causes behind this problem, including global warming, habitat loss, parasites and a class of bee-killing…
