Difference between Bee and Insect

Bee vs. Insect

Bees are flying insects closely related to wasps and ants, known for their role in pollination and, in the case of the best-known bee species, the European honey bee, for producing honey and beeswax. Insects or Insecta (from Latin insectum) are hexapod invertebrates and the largest group within the arthropod phylum.

Amber

Amber is fossilized tree resin, which has been appreciated for its color and natural beauty since Neolithic times.

Müllerian mimicry

Müllerian mimicry is a natural phenomenon in which two or more unprofitable (often, distasteful) species, that may or may not be closely related and share one or more common predators, have come to mimic each other's honest warning signals, to their mutual benefit, since predators can learn to avoid all of them with fewer experiences.
