A honey bee has proboscis which is like a tiny drinking straw that sucks up nectar from the flowers. 2.there are two stomach in a bee some nectar goes into main stomach for digestion and energy rest of the nectar goes to a special 2nd stomach where the bee can process the nectar into honey and transport it back to the hive. 3.Bee can detect air pressure.if its going to rain the air pressure drops.they stay in their hives.bees also do not fly if the temperature is below 50 degrees Fahrenheit . when cold they cluster in their hive to stay worm.they use the honey they make for food during the cold months when the nectar is scarce. 
4.A honey bee can sting if u get stung the bees stinger gets hooked in your skin.and while the bee tries to flee apart of its body tears off,causing it to die. 5.In a colony ,there are thousands of workers bees A few hundred drones an 1 queen bee all worker bees are female and are assigned different tasks to perform.==Nurses to take care of larva==construction workers to bond together thousands of wax cells into honey comb.==janitors to keep hive clean==guards to protect the hive===and last but not the least food gatherers .All drones are male and they have only 1 purpose in life ==To mate with the queen.while the busy worker bee do sll the work. 6.a Queen bee can lay upto 1500 eggs in 1 day.and more then a million eggs in a life time.each egg hatches into a larva in 3 days and is fed with special milk called royal jelly by the nurse bees the larva then turns into a pupa,and finally then develops into a adult bee. 7.Each hive can have only 1 queen bee.when a hive gets too crowded the queen bee lays some special eggs which will hatch into new queen bees. 
8.the queen then sends out bees to scout for a new home.when a place is found.she leaves the old hive and is followed by swarm of workers bees.mean while when the new queen bees emerge in the old hive,the strongest new Queen bee destroys the other queens as there can be only 1 queen bee in each hive. 9.When the surviving Queen is about a week old ,she soars off and frequently mates with more then 1 drone while in the air ,and this can repeat for two or 3 consecutive days,after which she begins to lat eggs ,normally enough sperm are stored in her sperm pouch,to fertilize all the eggs for the rest of her life. 10.The drones die in the act of mating.
