Homonym: Mitsubachi (Honeybee)
Mitsubachi, or honeybees, are small flying insects known for their role in pollination and honey production. They belong to the family Apidae and are vital for the ecosystem, helping plants reproduce by transferring pollen from one flower to another. There are several species of mitsubachi, with the most common being the Western honeybee.
These bees live in organized colonies, consisting of a queen, workers, and drones. The queen lays eggs, while worker bees gather nectar and pollen, which they convert into honey. Mitsubachi play a crucial role in agriculture, as they pollinate many crops, contributing to food production and biodiversity.
