Well! It's starting to get technical!. As I understand it, a drone is a
clone of the queen. She lays an unfertilized egg, which is the product of
mysosis. I may be confused, but this would mean that the division of the
chromosomes would not always be identical, which means that the drones
aren't techinically clones, unless the eggs are produced
parthenocarpically. If they are produced parthenocarpically, they are
clones. Well, let's wait for the smart people to chime in, but this is BEE-
L at it's best!
