bees bodily fluids. This weakens the bees body‚ eventually causing death. Varroa Destructor is a species of mite‚ only able to reproduce in in a beehive. The process begins with the infiltration of a honeycomb cell and lays its eggs on the honey bee larvae. This happens right about when the bee is ready to pupate‚ and just before one of the worker bees closes off the cell. The eggs proceed to hatch and the babys and mother mites feed on the bee in the safety of the cell. The bee is not normally killed

Moving on to This first animal fossil feeding regiment and habitat. Ctenophores are considered as a carnivorous specie. They consume a variety of planktonic organisms like fish larvae. The amount of food they eat is extremely large and the only way they can do so is by progressively pumping water inside their body cavities. Comb jellies can live in a variety of locations. Some live near the shores other live in deep water‚ but

Shells and shell competition Underwater photo of a hermit crab and gastropod shell Hermit crabs fighting over a shell As hermit crabs grow they require larger shells. Since suitable intact gastropod shells are sometimes a limited resource‚ there is often vigorous competition among hermit crabs for shells. The availability of empty shells at any given place depends on the relative abundance of gastropods and hermit crabs‚ matched for size. An equally important issue is the population of organisms

The life history of the Green Sphinx starts when an egg is laid onto a host plant‚ hatches into a larvae‚ then undergoes metamorphosis within a pupa to reach its adult form‚ in which the moth is now able to fly (Khoa 2012). This type of development is common to most Lepidoptera (Khoa 2012). However‚ here is a lack of information on the life history specific

Burgdorferi‚ a spirochete that causes a lot of damage to your body. However‚ there are two different solutions that could stop Lyme Disease from spreading even more: vaccines and population control. Deer ticks get Lyme from the mice they prey on as larvae. If the mice were given vaccines‚ that would stop the ticks from spreading Lyme. On the other hand‚ if the mice populations were lowered‚ the number of Lyme Disease cases might get reduced too. I would give the vaccine to mice because that’s where
