Answer 1

Honey Bees
Lance Carson

While closely related to ants and wasps, bees are the insects that produce delicious honey. 1They have an important function in pollinating flowering plants. For many people, knowledge of bees is limited to a painful familiarity with the sting of a honey bee. 2But these winged, flower-feeding insects have a fascinating story.

Approximately 320,000 bee species exists worldwide. Scientists can determine delicate differences in wing veins and mouthparts to classify the species into eleven families of bees. However, 4 more obviously description features contribute to this classification of a bee into one of the eleven families. These characteristics include 5 size, nesting activities and foraging behaviors. Additionally, traits such as body hair, the length of the tongue, and the pollen-carrying structure are considered in family determination.

The most familiar 6 and well known bees are the honey bees, which is the common name for any of several species of highly social bees famous for their honey-hoarding behavior. They are native to Asia and the Middle East. This family makes intricate nests 7 and lived in complex societies. This family is 8 divided into four tribes- the honey bees, the bumble bees, the orchid bees, and the stingless bees. All honey bees have a smooth pollen-carrying structure known as a pollen basket. 9 As with all other honey bees, orchid bees are the most brilliantly colored.

11As the honey bee suggests, this family name of insects produces honey. Beekeeping, also known as apiculture, refers to the management by humans of honey producing bee colonies. This management is not only for the production 12 of honey. For other hive products like beeswax. It even manages the pollination of crops. Beekeepers 13 all over the entire world earn their living from the sale of the honey and beeswax produced by their hives. In some countries beekeepers are compensated for pollination services. This supports the claim that honey bees contribute to worldwide economies and environments because of their essential pollination of fruits and vegetables. Honey bees also pollinate pasturage, which is the land covered by grass and vegetation and populated by grazing animals.
