A worker Honey Bee stinging a person's arm. The stinger penetrates the skin, at which point the bee expels the poison sack. Muscles from the sack pump poison through the stinger and into the skin.

Close-up view of the stinger and poison sack show that the muscles of the sack continue to pump poison through the stinger after it has broken away from the bee.

Side and top views of Honey Bee feeding on a honey and water mixture. The mouthparts form a tongue-like structure which laps up liquid, namely flower nectar.
