Bees can fly about 15 mph (24 kph). They eat nectar (a sweet liquid made by flowers) which they turn into honey. In the process of going from flower to flower to collect nectar, pollen from many plants gets stuck on the bee's pollen baskets (hairs on the hind legs). Pollen is also rubbed off on flowers. This pollinates many flowers (fertilizing them and producing seeds).
All the members of the hive are related to each other. There are three types of honey bees:
Bees undergo complete metamorphosis. The queen lays eggs in a cell in the wax comb (all the immature bees are called the brood). Each tiny egg hatches into a worm-like larva, which eventually pupates into an adult bee.
