Bees are a widely distributed insect belonging to the order Hymenoptera and are commonly found in gardens, farmlands and natural ecosystems. They play an important role in the balance of environmental ecology and agricultural production. The body structure of the bee is unique and usually consists of three main parts: head, chest and abdomen. The head is equipped with compound eyes and antennae, allowing it to sense its surroundings and recognize the color and fragrance of flowers.

The golden or black outer shell of the bee is covered with short hairs, which help to adsorb pollen when gathering nectar. Their front and back wings are joined together by a small hook, allowing them to fly flexibly. The bee's mouthparts are adapted to sucking nectar and chewing pollen, especially its long, curly tongue, which allows it to penetrate deep into flowers for nutrients.

The social structure of honeybees is extremely complex, and they usually form groups in hives. Within a hive, there are different roles such as worker bees, drones and queens. Worker bees are responsible for gathering nectar, caring for young bees and building nests, while drones are primarily responsible for reproduction. The queen is the center of the hive, responsible for laying eggs and maintaining the hive.

In the process of gathering nectar, bees not only provide food for themselves, but also promote pollination of plants. This process is crucial for plants to reproduce, allowing the diversity of plants within the ecosystem to be maintained. With the activity of bees, different kinds of flowers can be pollinated alternately, thus promoting the formation of fruit.

In recent years, the decline of bee populations has caused widespread concern, leading to threats to vegetation and agricultural production in many areas. Factors such as environmental pollution, climate change and pesticide use are putting pressure on bees.
