“If the bee disappeared off the surface of the globe‚ then man would have only four years of life left. No more bees‚ no more pollination‚ no more plants‚ no more animals‚ no more man‚” Albert Einstein once stated(goodreads). Bees have been a critical aspect of all premise of nature. They have flourished for millions of years and have survived as servants of nature. Humans have continuously relied on the natural life processes of bees. The honey bees are a keystone species within the biosphere

The result of the honey bee pollination indirectly supports an exceedingly broad list of species. Honeybees support both plant and animal as the plants cannot spread and reproduce without the honeybee or similar pollinator spreading its pollen. Several animals also rely on the plants

(Obama White House Archives 2014) Those considered to be in the working class are not just men and women; bees are in the working class as well‚ simply through pollination. Pollination‚ the process of transferring seeds and pollen to other surrounding plant life‚ allows plants to grow and flourish for food. This is made possible due to a bee’s body. The fuzz like surface of a bee’s body carries the pollen and seeds. Pollen

behind the evolutionary adaptation of flowers into bright colors is for pollination. With attractive coloring‚ birds‚ insects‚ bats‚ and other "pollinators" are more likely to collect pollen from that flower than one with a less attractive color. The pollen will then be spread around‚ and more of the same flower will be grown‚ showing that certain colors are more advantageous than others. 3. What is pollination? Pollination is the transfer of pollen from the male reproductive organ (stamen) to

which is carried inside a pollen‚ has to land on the stigma for successful sexual reproduction to occur. Some plants use insect for pollination. They have large and brightly coloured petal to attract insects. Sticky stigma curls down to pick up the pollen grains from the insect and nectary which secretes sweet nectar to attract insects for pollinating. For wind pollination‚ the flowers have very long anther hanging loosely out of the flower‚ large number of light‚ small‚ dry and smooth pollen grains

use to make sure that this artificial pollination is done successfully. The process must be done at a perfect time. The most suitable time to do this process is early in the morning which is before 10 a.m. As mentioned by the PMPC worker‚ at this time‚ the stigma is stickier‚ and to avoid natural hybrid cause by insects. This is due to the female part usually secretes colorless nectar which can attracts insects to go near it. Next‚ 8 months after the pollination was done‚ the F1 generation (fruit)

Martin Dedinsky SCI 215 Enviromental Science Katarina Tuharska Research Paper February 26‚ 2010 It’s technically impossible to replace honey-bees as most important pollinators on earth. Pollination is service provided by insects and other small animals. Also Honey-bees distribute pollen among plants of the same species. This function of ecosystem could not be imitated by any jet invented technology. Plants allure honey-bees on nectar stored

Each group uses a different method‚ one can work well in one environment while the other one works well in a completely different environment‚ there’s some sort of balance between them. Even though wind pollination is risky and pollinations with animals is a safer bet 3. Plants need the insects to carry the pollen to seeds. Since the
