In honey bees, the male is haploid while the female is diploid. ... Queen bee picks up all the sperms from the drone during nuptial flight and stores the same in her seminal vesicle. Formation of worker bees(diploid females) and drones(haploid males) depends upon the brood cells visited by the queen.

Honeybees show haplodiploid method of sex determination. Haplodiploidy is a sex determination mechanism in which males develop from unfertilised eggs and are haploid, and females develop from fertilised eggs and are diploid.
