Honey bee workers rear most of their larvae in hexagonal cells (upper right) provisioned with a relatively small quantity of food so that the larvae develop into new workers. A few larvae are reared as new queens in larger queen cells (center left) that are newly constructed and provisioned with more and qualitatively different brood food.
