Answer 1

This is a temporary answer UNTIL an expert contributes a more professional answer.

The beehive functions much as your house. It provides protection from the elements [like wind, rain, snow, ice and hail, cold, heat, and others I can't think of right now].

It provides an enclosed, and fairly well insulated, environment in which the bees themselves can have some limited environmental control by increasing or reducing the temperature. Primarily, heat is added via their own collective body heat, and cooling is accomplished via air circulation using their own wings to exhaust hot air and blend in cooler outside air.

It provides a structure to support their comb [storage vessels for honey] and safely house their sole product, honey, which is their food, critical to their survival.

It also provides some limited protection from predators and collateral damage from critters in general.

Answer

I agree with the above poster, but just wanted to add that there is a great problem with bees in the U.S. and Canada disappearing and beekeepers are finding thousands of dead bees in their hives. Now the scientists are trying to find out why because it's very important we have bees for pollination.
