To make honey.
nectar (Bees gather nectar from flowers and turn it into honey.)
No, bees use their mouth, or proboscis, to suck up the nectar.

Bees want the nectar to make honey. The bees move pollen from flower to flower while they gather the nectar.
No, bees do not collect nectar from the roots of plants. They primarily gather nectar from the flowers, which is produced in the floral structures. Roots do not produce nectar; instead, they absorb water and nutrients from the soil for the plant's growth. Bees are attracted to flowers for their nectar and pollen, which are crucial for their foraging and reproduction activities.
The more honey a hive produces - the less the bees need to work to gather nectar .
The worker bees go out to collect pollen and nectar which they bring back to the Hive for food and to make honey. Honey bees eat honey and pollen as their primary food, but they also gather liquids and juices from plant and fruit exudates. When honey bees come across insects that secrete honeydew, they gather the liquid and store it as honey. When pollen, nectar, or honeydew aren't available, honey bees can collect and store plant spores and dusty animal feed as well.
Yes, bees collect nectar from flowers of the plants
Honey bees gather nectar by visiting flowers and consuming it using their proboscis. Once their honey stomach is filled, they carry the nectar back to the hive in a special pouch located inside their bodies called the honey stomach or crop.
Male bees use nectar for food. Female bees use pollen for feeding the larvae, and nectar and pollen for own food.
New evidence shows that bees see the world in a higher-frequency prism of light than humans & the flowers seem to "light up" as if under a black light for them. If you could see what they see, you would understand their excitability around the flowers & their ability to move directly toward the flowers from a great distance.
