Story of honey on your table


Bees are older than us ,they have come on earth before 50 million years back(Human is 5 million years back).
We know more of its  Honey  and
less of its incredible help for our biodiversity through pollination.Nearly 80% of our vegetable ,flower crops depend on it for re productivity.
Bees are social beings,they are three types of bee in single family one is queen ,second male and third one is worker which cannot give birth to offsprings .
Male only job is to mate with queen for reproduction after they die in short time but the selfless worker  bees are tirelessly work for the colony and for  its betterment.

1.One of the interesting fact of the bee is its nest, buit in octogonal shape.Architects all over the world realized importance of octogen shaped settlement because of its effectiveness in space,a octogen shape building encloses 20 % more space than square shape building for same perimeter.
2.Octogen shape buildings allows more light since it has more directions to welcome light unlike square shaped buildings.In europe they built this octogen
shape buildings for recreation purpose as it allows 360 degree view and strenth is par with square shape buildings,bees knows this.
3.Bees security measures are highly complex and efficent,when bees identify the threat it attacks on enemy ,when it bites some kind of chemical secrets on enemy
body  which has smelling specialty attracts other bees to attack on particular enemy.
4.Bee will die once it bites enemy.
5.Honey of the bees are precious because 1kg of honey which is in your home collected from nearly 1 crore flowers .
6.The astonishing fact is that the honey which any plants produce in their flowers is only to attract insects like bees for pollination purpose .
