A beehive is a structure where bees live and work together. It is typically made of wax and is designed to house a colony of honeybees. Inside the beehive, bees create hexagonal cells to store honey, pollen, and to raise their young. Bees are essential for pollination, which helps plants reproduce. A beehive can be found in nature, such as in trees, or can be man-made for apiculture, the practice of keeping bees for honey production. Beehives play a crucial role in maintaining healthy ecosystems and supporting agriculture.
