What percentage of crops are dependent on bee pollination in the u. S.?

80%

Explanation:

Pollination is the act of transferring pollen grains from the male anther of a flower to the female stigma. The goal of every living organism, including plants, is to create offspring for the next generation. Seeds can only be produced when pollen is transferred between flowers of the same species.



Honeybees pollinate 80 percent of U.S grown crops—products valued at more than $14 billion. Crops that benefit from honeybee pollination include fruits, nuts, vegetables, cotton and other small grains. They also include cover crops, which farmers plant between commercial crops to prevent nutrient runoff and soil erosion and boost soil nutrients.

It’s estimated that there are about 2.4 million honeybee colonies in the U.S. today.

In a single day, one honeybee makes 12 or more trips from its hive, visiting several thousand flowers at a time. On each trip, it confines its visit to one plant species, collecting one kind of pollen. This enables the colony to find and collect food with maximum efficiency, which makes honeybees the most valuable pollinators.

answer; i believe the correct answer is ( proteins );

you did not attach the discourse, but i assume it to be the discourse on the origin and basis of inequality among men (the original titile in french is: "discours sur l'origine et les fondements de l'inégalité parmi les hommes"), also know as "second discourse". in this discourse, jean-jacques rousseau emphasizes that private property is the basis of all inequalities.

therefore, what enabled the old regime to maintain as long as it did was private property.
