Poster: summarize experiment and put it on a poster, assigned a reading from the textbook and analyze. Critical review of article: everyone has the same article, after observing and doing experiments, write paper about it. To be a nurse or to be a forager. 4 questions: how does behaviour promote survival, how do they use motor and sensory, how does it change during growth, how do bees behaviour relate to closely related bee species. Know which are proximate and which are ultimate questions. Bees are more social than we are: have a division of labour where only one of them reproduces: the queen, the rest are nurses or foragers. Workers are employed as nurses then as foragers and the jobs vary by age. Job as non-reproducing workers is chosen for them.
