How did the queen bee come into being?

The queen bee is bred by the larvae of female bees.

The queen bee is cultivated by the larvae of female bees. Generally, when the bee colony develops to a certain extent, the queen bee substance is reduced, and the hive stores more honey, the bee colony is easy to divide bees naturally, and worker bees cultivate queen bee larvae. This queen bee is cultivated with eggs. For example, after the honey flow period, it is often an important period for bees to cultivate the king of natural alternation.

Queen bee is a kind of HYMENOPTERA, also known as "queen bee" and "queen bee", which is a female bee with fully developed reproductive organs and developed from fertilized eggs. Distributed all over the world. Although queen bee and worker bee are diploid female bees developed from fertilized eggs, they are two types of female bees, not only in morphological structure.

But also have great differences in physiological functions. For example, the queen bee has a long life, a large body, can go out to mate, has a fully developed ovary, has the ability to lay eggs, and can secrete queen bee substances to maintain the order of bees; On the other hand, worker bees have short lives and small bodies. They have honey bags and powder collectors, which can go out to collect food and secrete alarm pheromones.

The queen bee is also called "queen bee", "queen bee" and "female bee". Usually, each colony has only 1 bee. The body is longer than worker bees 1/3, the abdomen is longer, there are thorns at the end, there are no wax glands under the abdomen, and the wings only cover half of the abdomen. The composition and content of queen bee information released by queen bee in different physiological States are obviously different. The feet are not as thick as worker bees, and there is no pollen basket on the hind feet, which has the effect of attracting bees.
