Bee Writing 🐝

What are bees?

Bees are perfect insects who help the environment, they help the environment by pollinating

our food crops and gardens. They also make honey. Bees are yellow and black striped, they

kinda look like wasps with their wings. They are different because wasps sting more than once. 

What do bees do?

Bees make excellent pollinators because they spend their life on pollen to pollen, the source

of the protein is that they feed on their developing offspring.

How do bees attract the pollen?

When a bee lands on a flower, the hairs all over the bee's body attract the pollen grains

through the electrostatic forces. Bees can smell pollen with their antennae.

How do bees play apart as pollinators?

As pollinators bees play a part in every aspect of the ecosystem. They support the

growth of trees, flowers, and other plants, which serve as food and shelter for creatures large

and small.Flowers rely on bees to cross pollinate their female plants. 

 What is pollination?

When bees feed on the pollen, their body picks up excess via their pollen collecting hairs, which

is then released when they land. Pollen acts as the flower’s seed, which is mandatory for

the survival of the flower species. Pollination is so important because it leads to the production

of the fruits that we eat, and seeds that will create more plants.
