Every seed will produce more of its own kind of plant.’ And it happened.” Genesis 1:11 (NCV) “People do not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.” Matthew 4:4 (NLT) “...The words I told you are spirit, and they give life.” John 6:63 (NCV) “For the word of God is alive and active….” Hebrews 4:12 (NIV) Terms Learned in This Episode: Festooning: Bees link together by their feet to form a chain. Festooning helps bees work together in building their hive. It might be a form of measurement. Pollinator: A creature that helps spread pollen, which helps plants grow. Pollen: Fine powder substance made by the male part of flowers. When pollen lands on a female part, that flower can make more flowers. Nectar: A sweet liquid in flowers that bees eat and turn into honey. Hexagon: Shape with six sides. Beeswax: A natural wax produced by bees that they build their honeycombs out of. Pheromones: A chemical scent or smell given off by some creatures. Brood: A bee still growing inside its cell. Larva: Immature or baby form of an insect. Corbiculae: The “pollen basket” where bees carry pollen on their body back to the hive. Sustenance: What we need to survive. A source
