They also have a special stomach, called a honey stomach, in which they carry nectar. All female bees have a stinger, which they use for self-defense in times of danger.]]> 2017-11-13 15:46:08 UTC https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/206300529 1305668 https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/206303494 2017-11-13 15:50:16 UTC https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/206303494 1305668 https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/206311044 The barbed sting of the Honeybee(right photo), is unlike the smooth sting of a wasp(left photo). The Honeybee's stinger is used only once and remains in the site of the sting. It should be scraped out immediately, because it has muscles that continues to pump venom into the wound. This is because attached to the stinger is something called the venom sac and this is what pumps venom into the subject who was stung. After stinging, the Honeybee will soon die because the insides if the bee will be pulled out with the stinger. The only time a bee will sting is when the hive is in danger, or when the single bees life is less important than anothers. ]]> 2017-11-13 16:00:16 UTC https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/206311044 1305668 https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/206315452 2017-11-13 16:06:22 UTC https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/206315452 1305668 https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/206317932 2017-11-13 16:09:52 UTC https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/206317932 1305668 https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/207245078 The first stage of a bees life is when the queen bee lays the egg in  a cell. This egg is sitting straight up and is not touching any of the walls.  Days later this egg will turn to a larva and this is when the worker bee who take care of the new bees come and feed the bees a food called royal jelly.  This is what they eat for days and then will be fed a pollen honey mixture sometimes called bee bread. They have grown to be 1,570 times larger than their original size. The next stage is the pupa stage. This is when the worker bees put a bees wax cap on the cell to protect the pupa. The pupa will then start to the different legs and antenna. Once the bee is fully developed it will chew a hole in the wax cap, and start its life as a fully developed  worker or a drone, and maybe even a queen. ]]> 2017-11-15 15:27:50 UTC https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/207245078 1305668 https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/207471371 2017-11-15 23:00:37 UTC https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/207471371 1305668 https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/207472410 This may enable you to imagine the honey bees anatomy. ]]> 2017-11-15 23:07:46 UTC https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/207472410 1305668 https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/207472990 2017-11-15 23:11:55 UTC https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/207472990 1305668 https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/207475320 In the book Stung by Bethany Wiggins there are many references to bees and them dieing. This story takes place in the future, and talks about what would happen if bees died and did not pollenate the earths flowers that produce food. ]]> 2017-11-15 23:28:03 UTC https://padlet.com/1305668/lcxj6gfxclqh/wish/207475320
