Yes, male bees (drones) are haploid, meaning they have only one set of chromosomes. They develop from unfertilized eggs, which means they inherit their genetic material solely from their mother (the queen). In contrast, female bees (workers and queens) are diploid, arising from fertilized eggs and having two sets of chromosomes.
The haploid in plants is when there is only one set of chromosomes. There are whole groups of animals that are haploid. These animals include bees, wasps, and ants.
Eggs fertilized by drones become female worker bees, while unfertilized eggs develop into male drones. Drones are produced from haploid eggs laid by the queen.
The mode of cell division in sperm cells of haploid male bees is meiosis. Meiosis is a specialized type of cell division that reduces the chromosome number by half, resulting in haploid gametes such as sperm cells. This process ensures genetic diversity in the offspring when these haploid gametes combine during fertilization.
Microgametophytes are haploid. They develop from microspores through the process of mitosis and give rise to male gametes (sperm). In plants, this haploid stage is part of the gametophyte generation, which produces gametes for sexual reproduction.
They are both fed as grubs by the nurse bees tending the brood. There is no concept of first or second.
When a queen lays an egg she chooses whether or not to fertilise it from her store of sperm. If she does, the resulting insect will be female; if not, it will be male. So, all female bees are diploid -- two sets of chromosomes, one from father, one from mother, and all male bees are haploid -- one set of chromosomes from the mother only.
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.
