Answer 1

Answer:

Honey is made from bees which they have collected from nectars of the flowers. Nectars are sugary liquid produced directly by plants through their flowers. Honey and nectar are good substitute for sugars as they may not increase blood sugar, although always take it in moderation

Answer 2

The answer is a) The proportion of water in the substance.

• This question has been presented in an article called 'Hum Sweet Hum.'

• It says that when the nectar is first collected, It contains about 80% water.

• After ten or twenty minutes, much of the water evaporates. After three days, it turns into honey and has only 20% water left.

• Thus, the difference between honey and nectar is the proportion of water present in it.
