Best Answer

Honey bee workers perform different tasks as they get older. They start by cleaning cells ready for the queen to lay in, then go on to feeding larvae and cleaning the hive. As their wax glands develop they move on to making comb, and storing pollen and nectar and making honey. When their venom glands develop they move on to guarding the hive entrance. At this time they also start making short exploratory flights around the hive to learn the location of the hive. After this, they start foraging for nectar and pollen, which they will do for the rest of their lives.
