Question

(1) _____ bee lays eggs in a hive.​

Answer 1

Answer:

queen bee

Explanation:

The life cycle of all insects, including honey bees, begins with eggs. During the winter season, a queen forms a new colony by laying eggs within each cell inside a honeycomb. Fertilized eggs will hatch into female worker bees, while unfertilized eggs will become drones or honey bee males.

Answer 2

Queen bee lays eggs in a hive.

• In a bee hive we can find three types of bees namely:

1. Drone bee
2. Queen bee
3. Worker bee

• Among the three drone bee is a male, whereas queen bee and worker bee are female.
• Those female bee which are sterile and incapable of laying egg are called as worker bee.
