  5. Beekeeping Collecting honey from wild bee colonies is one of the most ancient human activities. Humansbegan to attempt to domesticate wild bees in artificial hives made from hollow logs, wooden boxes, pottery vessels, and woven straw baskets. Obrázek 2 Wooden hives in Stripeikiai in Lithuania

  6. Ecologicalimportanceofbees • are known for their role in pollination and for producing honey and beeswax • are adapted for feeding on nectar and pollen, the former primarily as an energy source and the latter for protein and other nutrients • have a long proboscis (a complex "tongue") that enables to obtain the nectar from flowers • play an important role in pollinating flowering plants, and are the major type of pollinator in ecosystems that contain flowering plants. Bees either focus on gathering nectar or on gathering pollen Obrázek 3 Honey bees (Apismellifera) in cactus flower, immersed in pollen

  7. Bees and toxicchemicals Obrázek 4 A European honey bee (Apismellifera) extracts nectar from an Aster flower using its proboscis. Tiny hairs covering the bee's body maintain a slight electrostatic charge, causing pollen from the flower's anthers to stick to the bee, allowing for pollination when the bee moves on to another flower. Honeybeescan suffer serious effects from toxic chemicals in their environments. H

  8. honey produced from nectar of Rhododendron ponticum (also known as Azalea pontica) contains alkaloids that are poisonous to humans but do not harm bees • the nectar of Andromeda flowers contains grayanotoxins which can paralyze the limbs List ofpoisonousplants Obrázek 5 Rhododendronponticum
