Detailed explanation-1: -Bees can see ultraviolet wavelengths and as it turns out, flowers have patterns of UV within their petals which attract bees and point out the treasure trove of nectar and pollen awaiting them at their center.
Detailed explanation-2: -Why? Solution : Ultraviolet (UV) light has wavelength shorter than that of visible light. Bees have some retinal cones that are sensitive to UV light, so they can see objects in UV light. Human eyes do not posses retinal cones sensitive to UV light, so human beings can.
Detailed explanation-3: -Bees like flowers because they feed on their nectar and pollen. The nectar is used by bees as food and an energy source to get to and from their home. The pollen they also pick up from flowers are used to feed larva (baby bees) in the hive.
Detailed explanation-4: -Mutualism is when two organisms are involved. For example, A bumble bee and a flower. The bee lands on the flower and starts to take the pollen from the flower. This helps the bee live.
