The correct Answer is:
**Step-by-Step Solution:** 1. **Understanding the Role of the Queen Honey Bee**: The queen honey bee is the primary reproductive individual in a colony of honey bees. Her main function is to lay eggs. 2. **Types of Eggs Laid by the Queen**: The queen honey bee lays two types of eggs: - **Fertilized Eggs**: These eggs are fertilized by the drone bees and will develop into female bees, which include worker bees and new queens. - **Non-Fertilized Eggs**: These eggs are not fertilized and will develop into male bees, known as drones. 3. **Development of Eggs**: - **Fertilized Eggs**: When the queen lays fertilized eggs, they develop into female individuals (workers and potential new queens). - **Non-Fertilized Eggs**: When she lays non-fertilized eggs, they develop into drones. 4. **Conclusion**: Therefore, the correct answer to the question is that the queen honey bee lays two types of eggs: fertilized eggs (which develop into females) and non-fertilized eggs (which develop into drones). **Final Answer**: A queen honey bee lays fertilized eggs (which develop into workers and queens) and non-fertilized eggs (which develop into drones). ---
