Name that Body Part

Bees are one of the many insects found in an apple orchard. Even though you may easily tell one insect from another, they all have a similar body structure.

Insects have three main body parts:

1) HEAD: The insect's eyes, mouth, brain, and antennae can be found here.
2) THORAX: The wings and legs are found on this body part.
3) ABDOMEN: This body part is important for breathing, getting rid of waste, and producing offspring.

Your task:
Using the descriptions above, point out the head, thorax and abdomen on the picture of a bee.

Now colour the bee. The head and thorax are black. The abdomen is yellow and black/brown.
