Your question is a bit vague, since beehives do a lot! I'll do my best to hit the high points.
Beehive Functions
So how does it "work" when they do all that? It's a long list, so let's itemize it.
Pollination
When honeybees are out flitting from flower to flower, they inadvertently pick up grains of pollen and transport them. The same effect is observed when the bees gather pollen.
Honey Production
Probably the most familiar function of beehives is honey production. See my answer about how bees make honey in the related links section.
Propolis Production
What the heck is propolis? Glad you asked. Propolis is what honeybees use in the wild to keep their hives' components stuck together; it's made from tree resins mixed with pollen, and can be brown, black, white, red, yellow, or green. Propolis is used in traditional medicines.
Local Pollen Production
Of course, honeybees don't actually make pollen; they just gather it from flowers more effectively than humans can. Honeybees use pollen for food (it's a good source of protein, apparently!) Humans use local pollen to relieve Allergies.
Royal Jelly Production
Honeybees produce royal jelly in glands on top of their heads. They feed it to their larvae for the first three days after hatching, but it's called "royal" because it's the only food of queens for their whole lives.
Beeswax Production
Beeswax is produced in the fourth through eighth abdominal sections of workers. They build their entire hives from beeswax, produced one flake at a time, one bee at a time.
Food
I'm sorry to say that bees also serve near the bottom of the food chain as lunch for skunks, birds, ants, and spiders.
I hope that helps you understand a bit more of how beehives work. There's plenty more to learn, so I hope this has piqued your interest. :)
A bee hive is a complex structure where worker bees collect nectar and pollen from flowers to make honey and feed the colony. The queen bee lays eggs, while worker bees tend to the hive, care for the young, and maintain the hive's structure. The hive is organized with different roles for worker bees, such as foragers, nurses, and house bees, all working together to ensure the survival of the colony.
The Bee-Hive - journal - was created in 1861.
A bee lives in a hive.
Bees in a hive have specific roles based on their age. Worker bees clean the hive, care for the young, build honeycombs, and go out to forage for nectar and pollen. The queen bee lays eggs, drones mate with the queen, and worker bees provide the food and protection for the colony.
Honey bees live in a nest, often called a 'hive.' One hive can hold up to 80,000 bees, most of them workers. It is often located in a hollow tree. The hive is made of honeycomb, which are tightly packed hexagonal cells made of beeswax. They use the hive to store food and house their young.
the bees that take care of the hive and make honey called?" the guardian bees of the hive they take car of the bee hive. the bees that take care of the hive and make honey called?" the guardian bees of the hive they take car of the bee hive.
Because the hive is always at work along with taking care of the queen bee.

Bee's range into qite a large population, but in one bee hive they are know to have at least about 500-1,500 bee's in one hive.
Yes, bee workers are only girls. The boys (drones) do no work in the hive.
Do you mean the bee hive? 1. I went down to plant flowers when I saw a bee hive.
A bee hive is "une ruche" (feminine) in French.
