A
worker
B
queen
C
bees
D
drone
Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Drones on the other hand (male bees) have only a marginal role. The queen bee, on the other hand, is the only fertile female in the whole hive. Queens are the only specimens capable of reproducing. Their only job is to lay large numbers of eggs per day throughout their lifespan.

Detailed explanation-2: -The queen bee is a fascinating insect. She is the mother of all the bees in hive, responsible for laying all the eggs that will become female worker bees and male drones. She lives her life inside the hive, attended by worker bees who groom and feed her.

Detailed explanation-3: -A queen bee is typically an adult, mated female (gyne) that lives in a colony or hive of honey bees. With fully developed reproductive organs, the queen is usually the mother of most, if not all, of the bees in the beehive.

Detailed explanation-4: -A queen bee is the only female bee in the hive that gets to reproduce. Worker bees are all female, and are all offspring of the queen. But there are males in the hive called drones. Drones fly off to reproduce with other young queens who will start a new colony.
