Read the passage and choose the best answer to each question from the four choices given.
Bees, classified into over 10,000 species, are insects found in almost every part of the world except the northernmost and
southernmost regions. One commonly known species is the honeybee, the only bee that produces honey and wax. Humans use the
wax in making candles, lipsticks, and other products, and they use the honey as a food. While gathering the nectar and pollen with
which they make honey, bees are simultaneously helping to fertilize the flowers on which they land. Many fruits and vegetables
would not survive if bees did not carry the pollen from blossom to blossom. Bees live in a structured environment and social
structure within a hive, which is a nest with storage space for the honey. The different types of bees each perform a unique function.
The worker bee carries nectar to hive in a special stomach called a honey stomach. Other workers make beeswax and shape it into a
honeycomb, which is a water-proof mass of six-sided compartments, or cells. The queen lays eggs in completed cells. As the
workers build more cells, the queen lays more eggs. All workers, like the queen, are female, but the workers are smaller than the
queen. The male honeybees are called drones; they do no work and cannot sting. They are developed from unfertilized eggs, and
their only job is to impregnate a queen. The queen must be fertilized in order to lay worker eggs. During the season when less honey
is available and the drone is of no further use, the workers block the drones from eating the honey so that they will starve to death.
