Why do the honey badger depends on flowers for survival?
Uhm no they don't, but although they have a hobby of collecting the nectar that's just for the honey but they donot because they got other eatables to eat in there day time!
Are there bees with stripes that are not bumble bees?
Yes, there are many bees with stripes that are not bumble bees. Honey bees for one have stripes, along with many other bees, wasps and bee and wasp mimics. Black and yellow and black and white stripes serve as an easily identifiable warning coloration that helps reduce predation on all the bees and wasps that wear them.
Do bumble bees live in social colonies like honey bees?
Yes, but in much smaller colonies with around 50 others.
A bee's organ of smell is its antennae, and its sense of smell is many times more sensitive than that of a human.
Honey bees start life as an egg laid by the queen in a hexagonal cell within the hive. After three days the egg changes into a larva and the other bees feed it with pollen and then seal the cell with wax. After a total of 21 days from the time that the egg was laid, a fully formed worker bee will eat the wax capping and emerge from the cell. In the case of a drone (male bee) the time taken is 24 days.
What kind of flowers do bees eat?
Daisys, tulips, marigolds. Mostly its the bright colored flowers such as those I do believe. Bees cannot see red, but see ultraviolet wavelengths so colors in the blue and violet spectrum are attractive (ie - rosemary). If a flower is a good producer of nectar or pollen, bees will be attracted to it regardless of color. See the links below for some examples.
Sunflowers
Why are ants and bees considered pests?
Ants and bees are only considered pests by those who do not understand them.
Their sole purpose in life is to produce and nurture the next generation and bother nobody while doing this.
It is man who is the pest to them.
Yes, nectar makes honey. Bees sip nectar while accidentally or intentionally collecting floral pollen grains. They therefore use the nectar as an immediately energizing drink but also subsequently as drinks to be regurgitated for other colony members and as fluids to be mixed with digestive enzymes to make honey.
What are the most dangerous bees?
No one species of bee is any more deadly than any other. Individual bee stings are no problem to most people, but a lot of stings would be. It is estimated that around two stings per kilogram of body weight could prove fatal.
The sting of the so-called 'killer bee', more properly called Africanized honey bee, is no more powerful than the sting of the common Western honey bee. Their reputation comes from the fact that they are less docile and sting more readily, and people often get stung more than once by them.
To a person who is hypersensitive to bee venom it is immaterial what variety of bee stings them, the effect will be the same.
Something is killing honey bees world wide. Their numbers have been diminishing every year for the last 4-5 at least. This is extremely serious for humans, as we rely on the honey bee to pollinate many necessary plants as well as produce honey. There are many investigations going on to find the answers, but no definitive conclusion has come up yet. Suspected reasons range from parasites that weaken their defences to the proximity of high power electrical lines.
No. Insects are invertebrates in the phylum arthropods. Amphibians are vertebrates.
Honey bees have difficulties with some culitvated species of rose where the petals are large and tight because their proboscis would not be long enough to reach the nectar, but bumble bees have a longer proboscis and would be able to reach.
Honey bees do forage from the simpler rose flowers.
no, the bearded dragon is too big to be eaten by small lizards such as skinks
What do spiders and honey bees have in common?
The answers;
1. They all have drones and predators.
2. Humans can be allergic to all of them.
3. All 3 have types which can make honey, although wasp honey is not consumed by humans.
What do bees use their antenna for?
The antenna are the main organs of the sense of smell. One of the main odors sensed are sex pheromones.
Yes, everything except birds and mammals are cold-blooded, but that simply means they don't control their body temperature within close limits. However, it doesn't mean they are cold: during flight a bee's internal body temperature will be around 95°F (35°C).
ants do not need kings they have several ants to mate with the "queen" called "drones"
Do bees make any noise at night?
I once had a yellow jacket type bee nest in a hole in the ground (found it while mowing the grass) , and it a wasn't pleasant experience. Curious as to if they would bother me after dark , i set a one gallon glass container over the hole and started stomping the ground around it , and they came out in the hundreds , ready to attack. So , mowing at night was not an option. I started using a pair of binoculars to look out across the yard for more of this pests and found a total of nine different nests within a week. The trick is to look toward a sunrise or a sunset to see them coming and going in and out of the ground.
What bird sounds like a cat mating?
Peacocks often make loud cat-like noises when calling out to other males
What is the home of a giraffe called?
Giraffes live in savannahs and dry lands south of the Saharh Desert where there are trees.
Probably most likely a grassland biome.
Surprisingly, Yes. Mosquitoes do come out in the day. I've actually experienced one during the summer. One bit me around noon. Unless noon is considered nighttime, then Mosquitoes do not come out in the day. But unfortunately, yes. They do come out in the daytime.
Do bees gather nectar from flowers?
I guess yes, most do fly towards all flowers except for the bees who's name escapes right now, who do not fly at all.
