The reason why is that they need to give pollen to the bees because its sticks to them when they go in the flower to get pollen and then when they go to another flower they drop of their nectar so the seeds grow (just like sperm).
Nectar acts as a "reward" to insects that pollinate flowers; by offering up a meal of nectar the flower ensures (or increases the likelihood) that an insect will visit and pollinate (or cross-pollinate) it

What is the difference between sap and nectar?
Nectar and PollenNectar is a sweet substance, produced by some plants to attract pollinators such as bees, butterflies and hummingbirds. Bees collect nectar and make it into honey. While collecting the nectar, pollinators accidentally transfer pollen from male flowers to female flowers.Pollen is a fine powder of microscopic particles from the male flower that can fertilize the female flower to produce seed. Pollen is produced by anthers, the male reproductive organs found in most flowering plants.
What are some examples of nectar estores?
Nectar is a sugar-rich liquid produced by plants. It is said that common nectar-consuming pollinators include bees, butterflies and moths, hummingbirds and bats.
If a butterfly or hummingbird sips nectar from a flower does the flower replenish the nectar or die?
In some plants, the flower will keep producing nectar for up to several days before it dies and the seeds begin to form. In others, the flower produces just one batch of nectar. In some plants such as lantana, flowers may stay on the plant long after they have been pollinated and stop producing nectar in order to add to the attractiveness of the plant to pollinators.
What is a butterfly that pollinates one type of flower called?
Host-specific is what a butterfly that pollinates one type of flower is called.Specifically, butterflies enjoy feeding on the nectar of a plant's flowers. They move pollen from one plant to another as they consume the nectar of different plants. Some butterflies work from a wider range of plants deemed nectar-worthy than others and therefore labeled host-plants.
What are some vegetables that are the root of the plant?

Why do animals visit flowers?
Usually, the insect visits a flower to get the nectar, which is rich in sugars. Bees visit for the nectar and the pollen.To collect the nectar they produce. The pollen the flower has is attached to the body of the insect and as they go from flower to flower its causes pollination.
What is the sweet liquid made by some flowers that help in the transfer of pollen by birds and bees?
Nectar.

Honey comes from what animal?
Honey is a sweet, viscous food substance made by honey bees and some other bees. Bees produce honey from the sugary secretions of plants (floral nectar) or from secretions of other insects (such as honeydew), by regurgitation, enzymatic activity, and water evaporation.
Why do some flowers have nector?
Most plants need to have pollen transferred from one flower to another. They produce nectar to attract insects such as bees. As the insects take the nectar some of the pollen sticks to their bodies and is transferred to the next flower they visit. It could be seen as a a sort of payment by the plant for services by the insects.

Do young plant produce seed?
Well not all plants produce seeds because they are different kinds of plants , so some can and some can not produce seeds .
How bee produces honey?
Generally, bees slurp up nectar (a sweet liquid that plants produce to attract insects to aid pollination) from plants (particularly some flowers) and use this substance 'nectar' as the main source in the combination of the yellow gooey substance that we consume and name as 'honey'. This was done by a Grade 5 ( or P5 ) Singaporean schoolgirl.
Is a honey bee a producer or a consumer?
Honey is not a producer, but it is produced by honey bee's. The bee's make the honey by in-jesting nectar and pollen and soon making the pollen/nectar into honey.
