Q. Drones in honey bee produce gametes by
(1) Meiosis
(2) Mitosis
(3) Cleavage
(4) Amitosis
Dear student,
The correct answer is (2).Drones in honey bee produce gametes by the process called as mitosis.This is because the male honey bee or drones are haploid.Thus, they produce the sperm by mitosis.Mitosis is the type of cell division in which the chromosome number remains the same after cell division.Thus, haploid drones produce haploid gametes by mitosis.
Regards
