About one to two teaspoons.. The accumulation of such enormous stores of honey in a hive in one day are due to there being anywhere from 20,000 to 80,000 + bees in the hive at one time - all doing the work of nursing brood, cleaning 'house', guarding stores, and foraging for nectar. A bee goes out to forage for honey, visiting 100 flowers per each trip out of the hive, making approximately 10 trips per day, for each day of her whole life - as a forager.. her life is only about 4 weeks.. (34-36 days) She literally works herself to death... for one to two teaspoons of honey..
None. Only worker bees produce honey. All worker bees have have stingers. If a worker looses it's stinger it will die.

A honey bee only lives for 6 weeks so it probably can only produce a teaspoonful of honey in its life.

No, honey bees produce wax for constructing their nests much like spiders produce their webs. Honey bees have a gland that produces a wax flake or scale that is then molded into the honey comb. Bees also use a matterial called propolis that is produced from the sap and resin of trees and is chewed by the worker bees into a paste that is used to seal up and weather proof the hive. When it dries it is very hard and strong. Propolis is also water proof.
Well, honey, each worker spends however much time it takes to produce those goods in the domestic system. It could be hours, days, or even weeks depending on the complexity of the product. So buckle up, put on your big girl pants, and get ready to work those hours like a boss.
A cow produces approximately 87 quarts of saliva a day.
