Amino acids, carbohydrates, enzymes, fats, minerals, nitrogen compounds, organic acids, proteins and vitamins are the nutrients that honeybees seek and sustain. Amino acids, fats, minerals and vitamins come from pollen. The bee enzyme invertase will convert sucrose-rich floral nectars into dextrose- and laevulose-rich solutions that become carbohydrate-rich honey.

Are honeybees the same as bees?

No. Some bumble bees are solitary but even the largest social bumble bee colonies are quite small with up to a couple of hundred members -- compared to a honey bee colony at 20,000 to 60,000 members. Also, bumble bees only store enough honey for their immediate needs because over the winter the new queens hibernate and the rest of the colony dies. With honey bees they have to build up a large stock of honey for food when they can't forage in the winter because they do not hibernate and a large part of the colony will survive through the winter.


How is it that honeybees rainbow trout and homing pigeons use magnetism?

Honeybees, rainbow trout, and homing pigeons all utilize Earth's magnetic field for navigation and orientation. Honeybees have magnetite-based receptors that help them detect magnetic fields, aiding in foraging and hive location. Rainbow trout can sense magnetic fields through specialized cells, which assists them in migrating and finding their spawning grounds. Homing pigeons possess magnetoreceptors in their beaks, allowing them to navigate accurately over long distances using the Earth's magnetic cues.
