pollen‚ they are wind pollinated and they reach the appropriate species by chance. With angiosperms pollination occurs with the help of insects‚ birds‚ and bats. 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

substances like silk‚ honey‚ and wax. Humans have been raising honeybees for hundreds of years‚ and in recent years‚ it is estimated that bees produce an approximate amount of a million metric tons. Bees are also used for agricultural business such as pollination for nearly a hundred different commercially valuable crops like fruits and nuts. But in the last decade‚ according to the beekeepers from North America and Europe‚ worker bees have been disappearing from the bee hives‚ later on‚ the entomologists

purposes. Bees play a big part in our food supply and the environment‚ if they go extinct then we lose a lot of food and the ecosystem will be out of balance. Bees do a lot for the ecosystem‚ the main thing that they do is pollinate. “Pollination is essentially plant reproduction. Without help from animal pollinators‚ our everyday food supply would look much different– at least one third of our staples we’ve come to rely on would no longer be available”(Tucker). Bees pollinate by going to

Reproduction in humans Reproduction Reproduction is a characteristic of all living organisms. It is the process that makes more of the same kind of organism. Reproduction is essential in all species to ensure that the species does not extinct. There are two types of reproduction‚ Asexual and sexual reproduction. Asexual Reproduction: Asexual means not sexual. This means that this kind of reproduction does not involve sex. Asexual reproduction is the production of genetically identical offspring from

Declination Of Bees Bees are one of the most hardest working creatures on the planet ‚and because of their arduous work ethic‚ we owe many thanks to this amazing yet unappreciated insect. Our lives and the whole world in general would be a much different place without this insect. Bee’s are responsible for pollinating more than 400 different agricultural types of plants. Many people are led to believe bees don’t matter and that there just normal insects. Yet much of human existence is presently

genetics. The reason he studied pea plants was because they grow quickly‚ the traits can be easily observed‚ and the plant is easy to pollinate. Mendel’s method was to control the pollination of the pea plants and create offspring’s of the two plants that were pollinated together. Using self-pollination and cross pollination‚ Mendel was able to select plants that had specific traits and observe the traits that appeared in their offspring. The F1 generation is the offspring that is a cross between two

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

until spring when the flowering stem grows. Each stem will grow 2 to 12 flowers that are unique from other orchids by their colors‚ shapes‚ and ingenuity the use to attract insects. Each Ophrys species has its own insect that it depends on for pollination. Bumblebee Orchids are completely dependent upon bumblebees (Eucera algira). Each flower has a lip that tricks the insect visually and by mimicking female pheromones that attract the males. The Bumblebee Orchid has 2 to 3 flowers that look and
