Bee dissection

Bees are haploid-diploid

Bee castes Queen: long abdomen, jaws help her make nest, smooth sting can be used repeatedly. Can lay 1500 eggs a day.

Bee castes Workers: have hairs on legs to carry pollen, an anterior part of stomach called the honey sac to store nectar.

Bee castes Drone: huge eyes, so better to see you, my dear. Live to mate; die after mating.

Lifecycle Lifecycle of the worker bee 21 day incubation period, goes through series of larval stages 0-2 days, regulates temperature of hive 3-14 days, “nurse bee” feeds young, produces high energy royal jelly. All bees given royal jelly for a few days; queens given continuously days. Able to produce wax. Make comb and receives pollen and nectar from foragers. Stands sentry at hive entrance days. A forager. Travels outside hive.

Lifecycle Life of a queen - special queen cups - young queens fight to the death - nuptial flight. Mates with drones. Stores sperm for lifetime (can be more than 3 yrs). Queen pheromone keeps other bees sterile, no new queen cups made when hive gets very big, new queens raised and bees swarm; % of hive leaves to form new hive.

Dissection of honeybees The eyes Ocelli: 3 small organs that take information on light and dark. Compound eyes. Each eye has ~ 4,500 small ommatidia. Only 1/170 as spatially detailed as human vision.

Dissection of honeybees Antennae capable of picking up thousands Of different chemical stimuli, and the direction The stimulus is coming from. Can smell: -Smell of hive -Pheromones given out by queen, worker bees --Flower odors -- Bombs! Can hear: Sounds of bees waggle dancing inside the Hive (in the dark)
