Movie
Earlier in the semester we viewed a film about bees. These bees were amazing in the way they communicated to each other. A bee would go out in search of food (flower) and once it found its source, it would consume just enough nutrients to fly back to the bee hive to signal to the other bees where food is. The bee with the knowledge of the food source would dance to signal to the other bees that food is this or that way. This dance would tell the bee what direction the food was in, and about how long it was to get their. This was important because the bee did not use extra energy if it got lost. The bee had to be precise otherwise many bees in search of this food supply would die because they did not have enough energy to get back to the hive. The communication between these honey bees was truely amazing. Movies like this show importance of communication which can very easily apply to humans.
