To fly
This mechanism means the bees have a large area of wing when they are flying, but the wings can easily be folded back so they are not damaged as the bee walks around inside the hive.
All bees have two sets of wings, a set of what is called "forewings" and a set of what is called "hind wings". The hind pair is smaller, in some species of bees the hind wings are so much smaller that they impair the ability of the bee to fly at all.
No. Wet wings are too heavy for the bees to fly.
Four Wings:The front and rear wings hook together to form one big pair of wings and unhook for easy folding when not flying.
Like most insects they have a head, thorax and abdomen. They have six legs and a pair of double wings ie four wings in total. They have various internal organs which enable them to produce wax, propolis and honey.
bees
All bees have four wings.
When bees are standing still, the wings are folded back along the body. When they are flying the wings expand perpendicular to the body.
4. 2 pairs of 2. Wasps have two pairs of wings, four in all.

With their wings.
No, not every insect has 4 wings. Insects may have different numbers of wings depending on the species. For example, beetles have two pairs of wings, with the front pair modified into hardened wing covers called elytra. Bees and wasps have two pairs of wings, while flies have only one pair.
