DESCRIPTION:Bees use a wide array of senses to tell the difference between
  different types of flowers.  Smells\, shapes\, colours\, sizes and temper
 ature can be used by bees to identify flowers.  This\, however\, creates a
 n interesting question as to why plants would go to the trouble of looking
  so different from each other\, when a bee seeks the same things from a fl
 ower regardless of the flower's species : nectar and pollen.  The answer t
 o this riddle has to do with the different evolutionary demands on bees an
 d flowers - different demands which result in an elegant interchange betwe
 en flowers and bees that creates a motivation for flowers to differentiate
  themselves via any means necessary.  This differentiation even creates ev
 olutionary pressures for flowers to use electric fields to differentiate t
 hemselves from bees.  The bee's electric sense represents a novel way to d
 ifferentiate between flowers\, creating exciting ideas for the field elect
 rostatic biology.
