Yes, which is how bees can navigate (using the sun as a reference) even on a cloudy day, because ultraviolet light passes through clouds. Just as we see the sun in a blue sky background on a clear day, the bee sees the sun in an ultraviolet sky background on even a cloudy day. The underlying reason that the sky appears ultraviolet to a bee (and blue to us) is that something happens to the sun's rays when they hit charged particles. These charged particles are in the ionosphere and in Nitrogen and Oxygen "dipoles" in the atmosphere. The sun's radiation will cause the charged particle to vibrate, and when the charged particle vibrates it re-radiates energy. If you work out the mathematics (physics) of this re-radiation, it turns out that the energy is re-radiated in proportion to the fourth power of the frequency (as discovered by Raleigh in the 1800's and worked out with a more accurate distribution formula by Einstein early in the 20th century). For humans, who have eyes that have blue, yellow and red sensors, the fourth power formula means that blue from the sky is ten times stronger than red, so the sky looks blue. Similarly, for bees (and other insects), the highest frequency sensors in their eyes detect ultraviolet), and so the sky appears ultraviolet to them.

No, weight training vests will not give you scoliosis. Be sure that you follow the directions and wear it properly to prevent back pain.
Africanized honey bees (AHB), known colloquially as "killer bees" or Africanized bees, are hybrids of the African honey bee, Apis mellifera scutellata (not A. m. adansonii; see Collet et al., 2006), with various European honey bees such as the Italian bee A. m. ligusticaand A. m. iberiensis.
'Sweat bee' is a colloquial name for bees of the order Halictidae, but the habit of trying to get salt by drinking human perspiration is not restricted to bees of this order. See the related links for more information.
It carries information from distant objects to our eyes.
Apis Mellifera Carnica
Parasitic bees, otherwise known as cuckoo bees, do not forage for food or make nests for themselves, instead they invade the nests and food supplies of other species of bees, particularly Solitary bees, to provide for their parasitic young.There are two types of parasitic bee, cleptoparasitic bees and social parasites. The cleptoparasite queens simply lay eggs in finished but unused cells in other queens' nests then leave the young to be cared for by the host colony. Often the parasite queen or her larvae will kill larvae of the host queen. Social parasites are bees that kill the resident queen, lay their own eggs in the hosts cells, and then force the hosts workers to raise the young parasitic bees.The scientific family is Megachilidae, sub families Fideliinae and Megachilinae. Some of the genera are Anthidium, Coelioxys, Heriades, Hoplitis, Megachile, Osmia, and Stelis.
Bees can see ultraviolet rays.
Ultraviolet light can be seen by bees, but not humans. Bees also cannot distinguish red from black.

No. They can not see in ultraviolet light. They are known to glow when exposed to ultraviolet light, though.
Yes they do see in ultraviolet color. I just saw it for the question "How do Honeybees see?" answer.:)
Birds & bees (ultraviolet light waves), snakes (heat waves) and I don't know a 4th.
only bee's can is because they have extra far eye site so theat they can see far and very small things
Bees have ultraviolet vision that humans do not possess. This allows bees to see patterns in flowers for better identification.
Bees can see ultraviolet colors that humans cannot see. This allows them to identify flowers that may have a lot of nectar.
Humans do not see ultraviolet light, but there are some who can who have had to have replacements in their eyes, which altered their vision so that they can.
no flounders are fish they cant see ultraviolit colors but honey bees can
