Saintange EN 112 Final Paper April 11‚ 2008 Abstract American agriculture is addicted to honeybees and in the past few years we have begun to run short of them. Colony Collapse Disorder (CCD)‚ a significant disappearance of honey bee colonies that may be affecting bees in more than 22 states‚ threatens the production of crops dependent on bees for pollination as well as honey production.

Imagine living in a beehive. You are a single bee‚ among thousands of the same species. Every day‚ you do the same routine assigned to you. You may be tasked to collect nectar from flowers and spread pollen to other flowers. You can also be ordered to work in the beehive and take care of the young. The queen bee would be in charge of the whole colony. Observing the situation‚ we can say that every bee in the colony has a specific function or role. That is how bees‚ even though small and simple‚ can

to now‚ It is very obvious there is a problem. In recent years the bee population has been declining somewhat rapidly do to an unknown cause. It is very obvious that bees play an important role in the ecosystem and for humans. Honey bees help the process of pollination.

Fibonacci’s Rabbits The original problem that Fibonacci investigated (in the year 1202) was about how fast rabbits could breed in ideal circumstances. Suppose a newly-born pair of rabbits‚ one male‚ one female‚ are put in a field. Rabbits are able to mate at the age of one month so that at the end of its second month a female can produce another pair of rabbits. Suppose that our rabbits never dieand that the female always produces one new pair (one male‚ one female) every month from the second

They almost resemble more of a beetle in a way. A beetle has a hard shell on their back and most beetles we think of are black. Same as for Leaf Cutter bees‚ have a hard black shell that surrounds their entire body like a bullet proof vest. Just like a beetle‚ a Leaf Cutter Bee they can turn their head a complete one hundred and

other societal functions. The second type of honeybee is the female queen bee. Her job is to lay the eggs of the next generation of bees. The last type of bee is the drone‚ who mates with the queen bee‚ but serves no other purpose.
