QUÉ SIGNIFICA BEE EN INGLÉS

abeja

Bee

Las abejas son insectos voladores estrechamente relacionados con las avispas y las hormigas, y son conocidos por su papel en la polinización y para la producción de miel y cera de abejas. Las abejas son un linaje monofilético dentro de la superfamilia Apoidea, actualmente considerado como un clado Anthophila. Hay cerca de 20.000 especies conocidas de abejas en siete a nueve familias reconocidas, aunque muchas no se describen y el número real es probablemente mayor. Se encuentran en todos los continentes, excepto en la Antártida, en todos los hábitats del planeta que contienen plantas con flores polinizadas por insectos. Las abejas están adaptadas para alimentarse de néctar y polen, el primero como fuente de energía y el segundo principalmente para proteínas y otros nutrientes. La mayoría del polen se utiliza como alimento para las larvas. Las abejas tienen una larga probóscide que les permite obtener el néctar de las flores. Tienen antenas casi universalmente compuestas de 13 segmentos en machos y 12 en hembras, como es típico para la superfamilia. Todas las abejas tienen dos pares de alas, siendo el par posterior el más pequeño de los dos; En muy pocas especies, un sexo o casta tiene alas relativamente cortas que hacen que el vuelo sea difícil o imposible, pero ninguno carece de alas.

Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants, and are known for their role in pollination and for producing honey and beeswax. Bees are a monophyletic lineage within the superfamily Apoidea, presently considered as a clade Anthophila. There are nearly 20,000 known species of bees in seven to 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 are adapted for feeding on nectar and pollen, the former primarily as an energy source and the latter primarily for protein and other nutrients. Most pollen is used as food for larvae. Bees have a long proboscis 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 superfamily. 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.
