yes
A drone bee is a male. The queen and all worker bees are female.
The drones are the male bees. The queen and worker bees are all female. The only purpose of a drone is to mate with a new queen. Once mating has finished the drone will die. Within the hive, the drones have no function and do no work. As autumn turns to winter all of the drones in the hive will be thrown out by the worker bees and will die. New drones will be produced at the start of the next season.
Females are the Queen and the worker bees.Males are the drones.
Drone is the masculine name of a male bee. Female bees are the worker bees or the queen bee.
The drone bees are the males in the colony. All the females, except one, are workers. The exception is, of course, the queen. Drone is often used to refer to the male of some insect societies, bees and ants being the primary ones. The opposite gender would be the queen. The drones fertilize the queen and she lays eggs for the colony. Female wasps and bees are the queen and the workers. The drones are the only males. The queen and all workers are female.
Drone bees are male bees whose primary role is to mate with the queen bee. They do not gather food or perform other tasks like female worker bees. Once they have mated with a queen, drone bees usually die soon after.
AnswerOpposite of Bee is 'Drone'----Male bees are called drones; female bees are the queen and the workers.
The above is WRONG, worker bees are the sterile female bees that do do all the work. The bees that do no work in the hive are the male "drone" bees that the hive produces each summer. They have one function only, to mate with new queen bees.
A male bee is called a drone. A female bee is either a queen or a worker (infertile female).
Actually, the 'worker-bees' are 'Lez-Bees'.
Drone bees are produced from unfertilized eggs laid by the queen bee. In bee biology, when a queen lays an egg in a regular hexagonal cell, it can develop into a worker bee or a drone depending on the type of egg and the conditions in the hive. If the egg is fertilized, it becomes a worker bee, while an unfertilized egg develops into a drone bee. Thus, only unfertilized eggs will become drones.
The Queen is usually the only fertile female in a colony and is basically an egg laying machine. A drone is a male bee whose only purpose is to mate with a virgin queen, after which it dies. A worker bee is an infertile female bee and as its name implies, does all the work in the colony or hive from house-keeping, baby rearing, nectar gathering and honey production.
