Neonicotinoids‚ nicotine-similar pesticides‚ threaten bee populations‚ which pollinate agricultural crops‚ ensure food security and maintain biodiversity. Scientists Sebastien Kessler and Maj Rundolf sought to understand pesticide effects on bees. Through a laboratory study‚ Sebastien Kessler tested abilities of honeybees and bumblebees to taste common neonicotinoids. Unlike Kessler‚ Maj Rundolf assessed neonicotinoid impacts on bee colonies’ near canola fields. Each scientist had a unique plan

Research should also be conducted to see what diseases may be affecting the bee population and ways to combat this issue. Due to habitat loss being a big factor that is affecting these bees‚ artificial bee habitats should be created across the country to see if they help to increase the populations. Although this issue will take years to resolve‚ finding the best methods to helping to increase

don’t start doing anything we can to stop (or at least slow) the bees’ decline at the rate it’s currently going‚ we’re all going to have to face our own mortality shortly after the bees face theirs. There is‚ however‚ research being done on why the bee population is declining so rapidly - the main answer found being Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD)‚ in which a colony is near-completely vacated‚ and the bees that had apparently abandoned it seeming to disappear - no

It must have been very hard to study the bees and combine substances to test on the honeybees to get rid of the varroa mites and make sure it is still safe for the bees. What really stunned me was the a normal healthy bee colony can have up to 60‚000 bees. I found that honeybees pollinate at least 90- North American crops‚ and one-third of the world’s food crops‚ like apples almonds‚ broccoli and carrots. Those are many types of food we eat on a daily basis‚ without

the bee works hand and hand with the external environment to ensure the survival of the bumblebee. Each season provides different circumstances for which the bumblebee behaves differently in order to prepare for the next season. Bumblebees undergo a complete metamorphosis. The life cycle of a bumblebee has four stages which are the egg‚ the larva‚ the pupa‚ and the adult. According to Debbie Hadley (2014) the eggs are laid by the queen bee in clumps of pollen. More than likely a worker bee will
