The waxy architectural wonders seem to grow like crystals The same mathematical model that explains how crystals grow can also explain how tropical stingless bees build honeycombs in spiraling, multi-terraced shapes, according to a study published on Wednesday in the Journal of the Royal Society Interface. Bees from the genus Tetragonula specialize in sophisticated … [Read more...] about Scientists Crack the Mathematical Mystery of Stingless Bees’ Spiral Honeycombs
