Bees are insects that live in almost every part of the world except the northernmost and southernmost sections. There are 10,000 species, or kinds, of bees. One species is the honeybee, which is the only bee that produces honey and wax. Humans use the wax in making candles, lipsticks, and other products. We use the honey they produce as a food.

Bees are truly amazing because while they are gathering the nectar and pollen with which they make honey, they are helping to fertilize the flowers on which they land. Many fruits and vegetables would not survive if bees did not carry the pollen from blossom to blossom. The worker bee carries nectar to the hive in a special stomach called a honey stomach.

The hive is a nest with storage space for honey. Other workers make some beeswax and shape it into a "honeycomb," which is a mass of six-sided compartments, or cells, and which is waterproof. The queen lays eggs in completed cells. As the workers build more cells, the queen lays more eggs.

All workers, like the queen, are female, but are smaller than the queen. The male honeybees are called drones; they do no work and cannot sting. They are developed from unfertilized eggs, and their only job is to impregnate a queen. The queen must be fertilized in order to lay worker eggs. During the season in which less honey is available, and the drone is of no further use, the workers block the drones from eating the honey so that they will starve to death.
