In this module we were suppose to choose an insect and make some drawings on them by observing there movments.




My insect was 'HONEY BEE'

In the above drawings i have shown the movements in honey bee that they perform while communicating with each other about food source ( nectar).Honey bee perform two types of dance while communicating,1) Round dance,2) Waggle dance.


Round dance- The round dance is performed by the forager bee when the food source is located in the immediate vicinity of the hive.It is used for food source 25-100 meters away from the hive or closer.

Waggle dance-The waggle dance is for food sources greater than a couple of hundred meters.The scout waggles her body from side to side running in a semicircle restarting her dance where she began from.
