A beehive is an enclosed structure in which some honey bee species of the SubgenusApis live and raise their young. Natural beehives (typically referred to simply as "nests") are naturally occurring structures occupied by honey bee colonies, whereas Domesticatedhoney bees live in man-made beehives, often in an Apiary. These man-made structures are typically referred to as "beehives". Several species of Apis live in hives, but only the Western_honey_bee(Apis mellifera) and the Eastern_honey_bee(Apis cerana) are domesticated by humans.

The beehive's internal structure is a densely packed matrix of Hexagoncells made of Beeswax, called a Honeycomb. The bees use the cells to store food (honey and pollen), and to house the "brood" (eggs, larvae, and pupae).

Artificial beehives serve two purposes: production of Honeyand Pollinationof nearby crops. Artificial hives are commonly transported so that bees can pollinate crops in other areas.Answers.comA number of Patentshave been issued for beehive designs.
