The correct option is C Sterile females
A worker bee is any female bee that lacks the full reproductive capacity of the colony's queen bee. They are smaller, their abdomens are shorter, and on their hind legs they possess pollen baskets, which are used to carry pollen back from the field. The life span of worker bee is six weeks during the colony's active season. However, worker bees live longer (four to eight months) during the less active winter months.
