Why are bee hives placed in orchards?
Well if know that bees spread pollen, then you would know that when the bees collect pollen from plants, the next plant they touch gets a little of it from the bee. They land on the blossoms the apples grow from , therefore pollenating the apples.
Do bees know they are pollinating a flowers?
Bees do not ' know' anything. They just fly from flower to flower gathering pollen and nectar to take back home and feed baby bees. In the process, bees accidentally leave a wee bit of that pollen on other flowers - just enough to pollinate them.
Do bees help flowers survive?
nector is in the flowers and the bees use nector for their honey so the suck it out of the flowers and take it back to their hives
How and why are bees attracted to flowers?
Bees are attracted to flowers because they supply them with nectar. During the process of gathering nectar the pollen of the flower sticks to the bee and is carried to other flowers so inducing pollination.
How does roses smell so good?
Gasses have typical properties of evaporation and diffusion. The fragrance molecules with greater K.E evaporate from the surface of rose flower in gaseous state. These molecules due to their constant motion strike with air molecules and transfer their fragrance to these molecules by diffusion.This process continue more and more, the air molecules get fragrance.so, the pleasant smell is felt, when a person passes by a rose garden.
What are the uses of a honey bee hive?
Most plants require insects to transfer pollen from one flower to another, and most of this pollination is done by bees. Without pollination, plants would not produce seeds or fruit, so bees are not just useful, they are essential for life as we know it.
How does pollen get to other flowers?
Pollen can be dispersed by wind, gravity, animals and water. However the largest group responsible for pollination are insects.Plants can also undergo self-pollination if the flower fails to be pollinated by an external factor.
Do honey bees depend on other living things for food?
Yes, honey bees rely on flowers for nectar and pollen, which serve as their main food sources. They are dependent on these flowering plants for their survival and for the production of honey and beeswax.
Humming of bee is due to?
They don't know the words? The humming can be due to either the vibration of the wings or the vibration of the thorax and wing muscles (bumble bees do this) to loosen the pollen on flowers.
What is the difference between male bees and female bees?
Female bees can produce baby bees the males cannot. The female bees are diploid and the male bees are haploid. The antennae of a male bee has thirteen segments, while the antennae of a female has twelve. This is one way in which male and female bees are different. The worker (unfertilized female) honey bee does all the work, both in and out of the hive, whereas the male (drone) bee does no work at all. The bad news is that at the end of the breeding season, the drone is ejected from the hive and dies because he doesn't know how to forage for food.
How does the behaviour of the dancing bee help a colony of plants that have come into flower?
The 'waggle dance' tells the other bees in the colony where to find a source of nectar or pollen in relation to the position of the sun. Slight variations will let the bees know distance and direction.
Do bees mourn the death of other bees?
There is no way to know if bees mourn the death of other bees. It is possible that they do mourn other bees.
