Social Insects: The Honey Bee

Pictures the various adaptations and contributions of the worker, the queen, and the drone to the social life of the colony in a hive. The dance of the scout bee and how the hive population is controlled are shown. In conclusion, some comparisons are made between the honeybees' society and human society., Offers a detailed view of many aspects of the honeybee's life, including the dance of the scout bee which directs other workers to food sources and "population control" by expulsion of the drones at the end of summer. From the EBF Biology series. Alfred Emerson.
