BEES
Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants, and are known for their role in
pollination and for producing honey and beeswax. There are nearly 20,000 known species of
bees in nine recognized families though many are undescribed and the actual number is
probably higher. They are found on every continent except Antarctica, in every habitat on the
planet that contains insect-pollinated flowering plants.
Bees have a long proboscis (a complex "tongue") that enables them to obtain the nectar
from flowers. They have antennae almost universally made up of 13 segments in males and
12 in females, as is typical for the super family. Bees all have two pairs of wings, the hind
pair being the smaller of the two; in a very few species, one sex or caste has relatively short
wings that make flight difficult or impossible, but none are wingless.
The smallest bee is Trigona minima, a stingless bee whose workers are about 2.1 mm
(5/64") long. The largest bee in the world is Megachile pluto, a leafcutter bee whose females
can attain a length of 39 mm (1.5"). Members of the family Halictidae, or sweat bees, are the
most common type of bee in the Northern Hemisphere, though they are small and often
mistaken for wasps or flies.
Gold is found in many places, but in a small supply. It is often found on the surface of
the earth. Since gold is a heavy substance, it is sometimes found loose on bottom of rivers.
The gold is found together with sand and rocks, and must be separated from them. It is simple
to search for this type of gold.
It is not usually necessary to drill for gold, but when a layer of gold is located deep
below the surface of the earth, it is possible to drill a hole into the ground. Engineers have
developed modern process for removing gold from rocks.
Since gold is not very hard, it is sometimes melted and added to other substances for
making rings, coins, and art objects. It will be priced forever because it is beautiful, rare, and
useful.
