Honeybees

Species are made by Noirmancer Steeletto.

## Description

The Queen Bee

**Honeybees** are smart swimmers that are insects which feed on the pollen (nutrients) that flowers produce. Honeybees are yellow and black with light grey wings and they scavenge for flowers, to pollinate them and to get their food. They are social swimmers and work together. They live in colonies and can grow up to vast amounts of bees, all working together to run the hive. They are nutrientovores.

A Honeybee Queen has: 2 Keratinocytes, 2 Stereocytes, 2 Flagellocytes, 2 Buoyocytes, 1 Stemocyte, 1 Neurocyte, 1 Senseocyte & 1 Photocyte.

A Honeybee Worker has: 3 Stereocytes, 2 Keratinocytes, 2 Flagellocytes, 1 Stemocyte, 1 Neurocyte, 1 Senseocyte & 1 Phagocyte.

Honeybees have two different roles in their environment: The main role is the Queen and she fertilises the Lipocyte eggs and the other role is the workers, who pollinate the flowers in their substrate. They also coexist with flowering plants and honeycomb.

## Roles

### The Queen

The Honeybee Queen rules the hive and over all the workers. Her job is to fertilise the special eggs that the workers produce for her (puppies) and turn them into larvae, which will eventually hatch into worker bees. The Queen can release smells which causes the puppies to become the larva of the hive.

The queen can also use her Stemocyte as a pheromone when it becomes a Secrocyte to tell the newborn workers to go pollinate the flowers at the bottom of the petri dish.

### The Workers

The Worker Bees are the daughters of the Queen and pollinate the flowers and work for her to support her. Once hatched, they instantly go down to the bottom of the substrate to start feeding on the flowering plants, which causes pollination. When the worker bees approach the flowers, they start pollinating the flowers and when they get enough food from the pollen they release 'puppies', which are eggs that are basically Floaters and they float up until they reach an empty honeycomb slot.

## Pollination

The Worker Bees, starving and tired, reach the flowering plants which they are instantly interested to, since the flowers on the plant releases pollen and lots of nutrients so the bees instantly start chowing down on the nutrients of the flower as well as pollinating it. How it pollinates the flower is that the flower reacts to the Stemocyte on the Worker Bees, which reacts with the flower's nerves and then the flower becomes a greenish-white Gamete and the Myocyte on the flower detects it so it pushes the pollinated flowers towards another pollinated flower to create a Gamete Seed. Although the Worker Bees are too busy trying to eat the pollen, they may accidentally push the seed off the plant, which on contact with the flowering plant's roots will create another flowering plant and the cycle goes on. During Pollination, when the Bees get their fill, since they are relentless eaters and are never full, they create a Yellow Lipocyte Egg and when that splits, it creates a 'puppy' (A floater-like egg) that has a buoyocyte, keratinocyte and stemocyte.

## Cell stats

### Defence

W = 2 / Q = 2

For a Honeybee Colony to survive and thrive in a habitat, there should be:

1. Gravity, Density & Nitrates all on.
2. Light amount and range to the max
3. Salinity to the max
4. Very little nutrient rate & Nutrient chunk size should be 1/12
5. Gene Pool should have Phagocyte & Flagellocyte
6. Needs Honeycomb Cell Structure
7. There must be a plant that has flowers which produce nutrients
8. Workers & Queens must be in the same environment as listed above

## Trivia

* The Honeybee was made by Noirmancer Steeletto.
* The substrate in which he made the bees has four different genomes: Worker Bee, Queen Bee, Honeycomb & Flower Plants.
* Honeybees in the game illustrate similarities to Honeybees in real life.
