the cell
The honeybee does not deposit honey. The bee deposits nectar collected from flowers, (regurgatated as liquid spit) into the comb. It sits on the bottom of the comb and the bees flutter their wings to evaporate the water out until it is the consistency of honey as we know it.
Because regular hexagonal shapes are able to tessellate leaving no gaps or overlaps.
Hexagonal
The amount of honey in one comb of honey can vary significantly depending on the size of the comb and the bee species. On average, a standard honeycomb can contain between 1 to 2 pounds (about 450 to 900 grams) of honey. However, larger or more developed combs may hold even more. The honey is stored in hexagonal wax cells that bees build as part of their hive structure.
The part of the comb that the bees deposit nectar is called the cell.
yep the honey comb is made out of wax the honey is in the honey comb
Honey bees create honeycombs by secreting beeswax from glands on their abdomen. They then mold the beeswax into the hexagonal cells of the comb using their mouths and legs. The comb serves as a storage unit for honey, pollen, and eggs within the hive.
To remove honey from a honeycomb, you can cut the comb out of the beehive and then place it in a centrifuge, which spins the comb to extract the honey. Another method is to crush the comb and then strain it through a fine mesh to separate the honey from the wax.
with his honey comb
So the bees can store more honey in the nest/hive(I think...). - TSR
Bees deposit honey into the comb by using their proboscis to transfer the nectar they’ve collected from flowers. Once inside the hive, they regurgitate the nectar into the hexagonal wax cells of the comb. The bees then fan their wings to evaporate excess water from the nectar, thickening it into honey, which is sealed with a wax cap for storage and preservation. This process is crucial for providing food for the colony, especially during the winter months.
Ice exist in a very great variety of crystals (hexagonal crystalline structure).
