Here is ur answer.
1) Honeybee are social insects, which live in colonies.
2)A honeybee colony consists of three types of bees.
3) One queen, several thousands of workers and few hundreds of drones.
4) There is only one queen in a colony. The primary function of a queen is to lay eggs ( 800 - 1200 eggs per day). The lifespan of queen is two to three years.
5) A worker has 5-6 weeks and the drone has 57 days of lifespan.
6) There are sterile female which are called workers in the hive. These bees attend to indoor duties during first three weeks of their lives such as secretion of royal jelly, feeding of their lives, such an secretion of royal jelly, feeding of the brood. They are 10,000 to 20,000 in number.
7) After three weeks they attend outdoor duties like collecting nectar, pollen and water.
8) Drones are the male members of the colony. They are 200 to 300 in number. They are very lazy and unable to gather food. Their main duty is to participating in mating, after that they die.
