  2. Honey bee life cycle - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honey_bee_life_cycle

    Unlike the worker bees, drones do not sting. Honey bee larvae hatch from eggs in three to four days. They are then fed by worker bees and develop through several stages in hexagonal cells made of beeswax. Cells are capped by worker bees when the larva pupates. Queens and drones are larger than workers, so require larger cells to develop.

  7. Cuckoo bee - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuckoo_bee

    Cuckoo bees typically enter the nests of pollen-collecting species, and lay their eggs in cells provisioned by the host bee. When the cuckoo bee larva hatches it consumes the host larva's pollen ball, and, if the female kleptoparasite has not already done so, kills and eats the host larva.

  8. Western honey bee - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Western_honey_bee

    Honey bees do not survive and reproduce individually, but as part of the colony (a superorganism). Western honey bees collect flower nectar and convert it to honey, which is stored in the hive. The nectar, transported in the bees' stomachs, is converted with the addition of digestive enzymes and storage in a honey cell for partial dehydration ...
