Honey is not collected - it is made by bees from nectar, which is collected from flowers.
A honey bee collects about 1/12th of a teaspoon of honey in its lifetime
they dont they feed off of honey they've already collected
A bee uses its honey stomach to add various enzymes to the nectar that it has collected from flowers and turn it into honey.
Well i think the honey came from the bee and the bee collected the pollen from the flower and turned it into honey, but i'm not 100% sure.
Honey bees do not eat insects, they are completely vegetarian. They live on nectar and pollen collected from flowers.
British honey bees primarily feed on nectar and pollen collected from flowers. They use the nectar as a source of energy and the pollen as a source of protein. In addition to floral resources, they may also consume honey stored in the hive during times of scarcity.
Not at all. In fact, the nectar collected to make honey only goes into a special organ called the honey crop. It does not pass through the digestive tract.
Honey is usually referred to as amber or gold.
Honey is yellow in color because of the presence of pigments called flavonoids and carotenoids in the nectar collected by bees. These pigments give honey its characteristic golden hue.
Bees collect nectar from flowers to make honey, not pollen. Pollen is collected by bees for protein and to feed to their larvae. The nectar is converted into honey in the bees' honey stomach through a process of regurgitation and evaporation.
Honey is taken out of the honeycomb cell by beekeepers using a tool called a honey extractor. The extractor spins the frames of honeycomb, causing the honey to be flung out by centrifugal force. The honey then drips down and can be collected.
Honey primarily contains sugars, such as glucose and fructose, which are derived from nectar collected by bees from flowers. Additionally, honey may contain small amounts of vitamins, minerals, amino acids, and antioxidants.
