Why do bees make honey?

Answer by  Valentine62 (2131)

The honey, made of nectar, is a food source for all the bees, however, the worker bees,sterile females, build the honeycomb where the queen bee lays an egg in each cell. When the egg hatches, the larvae appear and the worker bees feed them pollen and honey.
