Summary Introduction
To review:
The use of the queen pheromone in the control of the inefficient management hive.
Introduction:
In a beehive, one can find three different types of bees, namely, a queen honey bee, male drones, and infertile female workers. Apart from these bees there are beekeepers, which have the responsibility of managing beehive.

Discuss how and why the queen honey bee aborts the worker bees' sexual maturation.
Serotonin has been shown to be sufficient to trigger the development of the gregarious form of the migratory desert locust (Schistocerca gregaria). What predictions must have been tested to arrive at this conclusion? You should know that you can inject serotonin as well as drugs that disable serotonin directly into nymphal locusts.

- As depicted in the diagram, honeybees communicate the location of flower patches to members of their hives with waggle dances that give information about the direction and distance to the flowers. Which of the following statements about how honeybees communicate the position of flower patches is most consistent with the model? a. The total area covered by any waggle dance leads bees to the target flowers. b. The farther the target flowers from the hive, the longer the waggle phase. c. The angle of the waggle phase relative to the vertical plane indicates the position of the target flowers relative to another beehive. d.The number of repetitions of the waggle dance indicates the quality of the pollen source.arrow_forwardBased on the text for roaches: 1.
