Answer:

Pollination by bees is called has hymenopterophly.

Explanation:

The melittophily is the pollination carried by bees.

Bees travel from flower to flower, collecting nectar (converted to honey later), and in the process pick up pollen grains. The bee collects the pollen by rubbing against the anthers. The pollen collects on the hind legs, in dense hairs referred to as a pollen basket. As the bee flies from flower to flower, the pollen grains are transferred onto the stigma of the female flower part. Nectar provides the energy for bee nutrition, pollen provides the protein. Furthermore, several melittophilous flowers imitate the shapes and the sex perfumes of female insects in order to attract the males that are the pollinators. There might be as many as 40,000 species of l bees that pollinate the majority of the 240,000 species of flowering plants. As insects, bees are relatively intelligent and are able to learn how to locate and operate particular species of flowers that are in bloom at a particular time.  They are also relatively strong and are able to push their way into complicated flowers that are not accessible to other insects.
