Question
Why bee keeping should be done in good pasturage?
✓
Answer
Bees need nectar to make honey. A good pasturage can provide plenty of flowers with good quality nectar. This will help the bees in making good quality honey in larger amounts. Thus, a good pasturage will help in improving honey yield. Moreover, if bees are confined in order to utilize nectar only from a particular variety of flower, the taste, colour and consistency of honey will be entirely unique. Many beekeepers make honey from nectar obtained from a single species of flower only.

A sound producing body is at considerable distance from a man. There can be four different media W, X, Y and Z between the sound producing body and the man. The medium X brings the sound to man most quickly whereas medium Z takes the maximum time. The time taken by medium W in bringing sound to man is less than that of X but more than that of Z. The medium Y, however, fails to bring the sound from the sound producing body to the man. Which medium could be the one:
