HOW DO BEES MAKE HONEY?

GENERAL STATEMENT
Bees are the only insects which produce food

for humans. The food the honey bee produces

is unique, good tasting, beneficial and

nutricious. So, how does a bee make honey?


SEQUENCED OF EXPLANATION
There are about 20,00 kinds of bees, but only honey bees make

honey. Honey bees live in groups called colonies. Each colony

has one female queen bee, ten of thousands or workers, and a

few hundred male bees or drones. Honey bees lives in hives.The

honey comb is a kind of bee apartment building full of six -

sided room s in which the bees raises young and store food.
The queen bee lays thousands of eggs. Worms look like larva

hatch from eggs. Each larva becomes a pupa, which looks

partly like larva and partly like an adult bee. Worker bees feed

the young, clean, guard the hive, and fly to and from flowers.

They collect tiny grains of pollen and a sweet liquid called

nectar for food. The pollen is food for young bees. Worker bees

use the nectar to make honey.


CLOSING
Thousands of worker bees

can produce over 200 pounds

of honey for the colony in a

year, Without bees bringing

pollen from flower to flower,

many plants can't make

seeds.
