Hey
diploid chromosome no. in honey bees is 32.
Female honeybee is developed from a fertilised eggs. Where as, male honey bee is developed from an unfertilized egg.
As it is produced from unfertilized egg, it'll have only haploid no. of chromosomes.
production of male honey bees from unfertilized eggs is called as arhenotoky.
it is generally said that,
male honey bees have grand fathers and grand sons but no sons and fathers.
HOPE THIS HELPS YOU.
