No. Bees make honey from nectar. Although the honey may contain a small amount of pollen from the flowers from which the nectar was collected, this is accidental.
Bees do collect pollen and bring it back to the hive, but this is used as food, particularly for the developing larvae.
Bees take pollen to make honey.
Apart from producing honey, we need bees for pollination.
Technically I think they do eat nectar but they turn it into honey in their stomachs. They then spit it back up to eat then or store in the cell walls to eat in the long winters. Hope this helps!!! -- Honey bees feed on pollen and honey. They make the honey out of flower nectar that they collect by sucking it out of flowers; they then store it in a special storage stomach and bring it back to the hive. There they pass it over to other worker bees, who make it into honey by mixing it with enzymes as they chew it. They spread the treated nectar into the honeycombs, and as the water evaporates from it, it becomes thick. When it is thick enough, they seal off the honeycomb cells with wax and store the honey until they need it.
Farmers don't usually breed honey bees, but they do need them for pollination purposes depending on the type of farm. For example, a livestock farmer doesn't need bees but a fruit farmer definitely does need bees.
Atypical habitat niches and colony collapse disorder are reasons why honey bees nest in the ground. The bees in question tend to seek above-ground nests located in woody plants proximitous to food sources. They nevertheless will accept ground-nesting when their biology is disrupted by the fatal colony collapse disorder or when their environment only offers cliff-top and ground-resting structures.
Bees take pollen to make honey.
Its called 'interdependence.' The flowers need the bees to pollinate them to survive, but the bees need the flowers so they can make honey, and the female bees pollinate flowers and keep pollen on there legs to feed there larve.
Apart from producing honey, we need bees for pollination.
Bees live in a colony and their nest is called a hive. There is one queen bee and hives can have up to 80,000 bees. Bees eat nectar and pollen from flowers and plants. The workers make honey, which is feed to the larvae.
Not a good idea to go around touching beehives, you could take an unwanted virus to the hive which in turn could kill off the bees, we need the bees for our honey. Bees are very busy collecting pollen for our daily dose of Honey so we need to safeguard them by leaving them alone to get on with what they do best!
Bees need a food source (pollen) that is not freely available in Antarctica. Also they would not be able to survive in the climate in Antarctica due to the low temperature.
Firstly, a hive is an artificial home for bees provided by a beekeeper. The natural home for a colony of wild honey bees is usually in a hollow in an old tree. Bees aren't particularly interested in a field of grain as what they need is pollen and nectar, neither of which is produced by a field of grain.
Bees don't hibernate, but if the weather is too cold they can't fly out of the hive - and in winter there would probably be no flowers anyway. So, they collect a surplus of food when there is plenty available and store it for the winter. Honey can best be described as concentrated nectar.
bees need pollen because they will make more hony so we can eat and so that is all:)

Bees collect nectar for food. Because raw nectar would not store for very long without fermenting, bee convert the surplus of nectar they collect into honey to use as food when nectar is not available. It is this surplus honey that we collect. Beekeepers then replace the honey with sugar syrup which, for the bees, is just as good.
If you are hoping for enough honey to collect for yourself you would have to use honey bees. They are a social insect and will only survive as part of a colony. This would mean it would have to be a very large jar because you would need to hold a colony of something like 40,000 to 60,000 bees. They would also need to be able to come and go as they please to forage for pollen and nectar.There would be a problem, however. The bees would build honeycomb in which to store the honey -- how are you going to get it out of the jar without killing the bees?All in all, it would be much better to use a proper beehive.
