factors such as Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD), pesticides, parasites, and lack of floral diversity (hoyt). In 2006 beekeepers started noticing their hives being mostly empty. Not so much empty as in the bees were dead, but they had left, leaving the queen and young bees unprotected, highly…
Why Honey Bees Affect Agriculture You may see a bee buzzing by, landing on a flower and not even think of the huge effect they have on ‘the world’ around us. Today, I will be talking about how and why honey bees affect Agriculture. The first reason is that honey bees are a big part of pollination everywhere around the world. Providing pollen to farmers' crops and other wild plants. The second reason is that honey bees make honey. Providing food for us and other animals. For example Bears.…
lifespan of a leafcutter bee is spent inside of a nest. After hatching, the prepupal larvae remains in that stage over winter. It will then pupate in the early spring (Young et al.). By late summer the larvae…
called drones, are just there to mate with the queen. They later are kicked out of the hive by the female honey bees. 2. If you were to write your paper over, what would you change and why? If I were to write my paper over again, I would just focus on the interesting social behaviors of honey bees as my sole topic. In the beginning of my research, I feared I would not have enough information to get 8-10 pages, so I did multiple topics related to the honey bee. I found out later that there is a…

bees specifically is the “most important pollinators of agricultural crops,” so if we would lose this species due to us, we will not have our most dominant pollinator anymore (Andree, et al. 1-9). We get more of our fruits, and many other foods from bee pollination, so if we continue to kill all the bees then we will not have any food life for us to eat. So if we continue to kill these innocent bees then eventually in the future we will not have any flowers to look at when we are taking nature…
seemingly healthy bees spontaneously disappeared and left behind vulnerable, weakened colonies (Foster, et al., 2007). This phenomenon was eventually titled “Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD).” In the United States alone, it was reported that one-third of the bee colonies had disappeared;…
caused the highest level of hive decrease since 2006. The phenomena of CCD has generated a large amount of public interest, in turn increasing interest in honey bee management or beekeeping worldwide. This interest has also led to an increase in research. Wild…
I was asked to choose a commercially available piece of music and analyse the recording techniques used. The piece I have chosen is ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ by Queen from their 1975 album ‘A Night at the Opera’ (Queen, 1975). Written by the band’s lead vocalist, Freddy Mercury, the song was recorded in 4 different studios between August and September of 1975. These were: - Rockfield Studio 1 - Roundhouse - SARM (East) - Scorpio Sound Bohemian Rhapsody was produced…
