The model supports the creation of Honey bees, Bumblebees, Wasps, Hornets, Yellow Jackets, Daubers and Cicada Killers. This set contains character presets and textures for the Western Honey Bee (Queen/Worker/Drone). Honey bees are native to Eurasia, but spread to four other continents by humans. There are only seven species of honey bee that are recognized, with a total of 44 subspecies. Honey bees represent only a small fraction of the roughly 20,000 known species of bees. The study of bees, which includes the study of honey bees, is known as “Melittology”. Bees show an advanced level of social organization, in which a single female or caste produces the offspring and non-reproductive individuals cooperate in caring for the young. They are known for construction of perennial, colonial nests from wax, for the large size of their colonies, and for their surplus production and storage of honey, distinguishing their hives as a prized foraging target of many animals, including honey badgers, bears and human hunter-gatherers.

  • Beehive from Wikipedia, the Free Encyclopedia
    Beehive From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A beehive is an enclosed structure in which some honey bee species of the subgenus Apis live and raise their young. Though the word beehive is commonly used to describe the nest of any bee colony, scientific and professional literature distinguishes nest from hive. Nest is used to discuss colonies which house themselves in natural or artificial cavities or are hanging and exposed. Hive is used to describe structures used by humans to house a honey bee nest. Several species of Apis live in colonies, but only the western honey bee (Apis mellifera) and the eastern honey bee (Apis cerana) are kept in hives by humans. A bees Painted wooden beehives with active nest is comparable to a bird's nest built with a purpose to protect the honey bees dweller. The beehive's internal structure is a densely packed group of hexagonal prismatic cells made of beeswax, called a honeycomb. The bees use the cells to store food (honey and pollen) and to house the brood (eggs, larvae, and pupae). Beehives serve several purposes: production of honey, pollination of nearby crops, housing supply bees for apitherapy treatment, and to try to mitigate the effects of colony collapse disorder. In America, hives are commonly transported so that bees can pollinate crops in other areas.[1] A number of patents have been issued for beehive designs.

The article deals with the fundamental activity of progressive representatives of Ukrainian educators of a certain epoch on the way to achieving socio-cultural optimum. The rethinking of the acute need for Ukraine to enter the European educational space has actualized the author's task - a deep retrospective reconsideration of the historical and pedagogical events of previous centuries, with a view to interpret more t horoughly the experience of the Enlighteners of the past generations and define their general significance for the further development of our state. The purpose of the article is to reveal the socio-cultural dimensions of the development of education in the territory of Galicia and Naddnipryanshchyna in the context of the XVIII - XIX centuries. The author investigates the multidimensionality of the main directions and forms of work of education and science representatives during the studied historical period. The research tools for the study were chronological and content, incremental, historical, pedagogical and comparative methods. The use of a whole range of methodological research tools allowed to determine that the activities of the progressive scientific and educational elite of the time, which continued to widely disseminate high-education ideas on the pro-Ukrainian territory, became the basis for more advanced development of vocational education.
