Why do flowers smell good?
Flowers release pheromones, a special type of chemical, which often smell sweet in order to attract insects such as bugs and flies. Those attracted by the smell will come to investigate looking for food, and in the process will help the flowers reproduce by spreading the genetic material from one flower to another, allowing for seeds to be fertilized. One can think of a bee passing from flower to flower, stopping at each one and brushing its legs against it, allowing parts of the flower to rub off on the bee. The bee then proceeds to travel to other flowers, fertilizing them in the process.

What is a non-working male bee is called?
There are no bees that have no purpose at all, but the drone bee is probably the closest. The drone bee has no father - literally. It is hatched from an unfertilized egg, meaning it only has the chromosomes from the mother (Queen) bee..Drone bees have no stingers, and they do not gather food. They have antennae that they use to detect (smell) certain chemicals and enlarged eyes. These extra sensory capabilities enable the drone bee to detect an incoming queen bee, and then impregnate the queen bee. The drone bee dies as part of the impregnation process..Drone bees live for about 8 weeks. In harsh conditions (cold, etc.), the drone bees are evicted from the hive, whereupon they die due to exposure or to predation.
