Bees are social insects that live in colonies, typically consisting of a queen, workers, and drones. Worker bees perform various tasks, including foraging for nectar and pollen, caring for the queen's offspring, and maintaining the hive. They communicate with each other through dances, such as the waggle dance, which indicates the direction and distance of food sources. Bees are essential pollinators, helping to fertilize plants by transferring pollen from one flower to another. This process is crucial for the reproduction of many flowering plants and contributes to the production of fruits and vegetables. The decline in bee populations poses a significant threat to global food security and biodiversity.
