In the spermatheca, females of many insect species, including honeybee queens, can store gametes secreted by their sex partners.

<h3>What is Spermatheca ?</h3>

The female insect's spermatheca is an ectodermal structure that receives, stores, and releases sperm for egg fertilization. According to the species, spermathecae differ in size and shape.

  • They often come from the median oviduct, which is located close or on the genital chamber. A secretory duct called the ductus seminalis connects the spermathecal sac, also known as the receptaculum seminis, to the genital chamber, where the sperm are released.
  • The number of spermathecas varies among taxa, however the majority of insects only have one. Depending on the species of insect, the spermatheca has different morphologies. The spermatheca is composed of the spermathecal gland, duct, and reservoir. Both of these fluids feed the sperm. Both the spermathecal glands and the male accessory glands secrete substances that feed the sperm.

So lastly we can say that, t females of many insect species, including honeybee queens, can store gametes shed by their mating partners in - the spermatheca.

natta225 [31]

Answer:

D. Burn more oil for heating homes

Explanation:

Encouraging people to conserve power would help weaken the greenhouse effect, not increase it. Stopping cutting down the trees in the Amazon forest would also heavily help weaken the greenhouse and not increase it. And unlike the others, using more nuclear power plants wont affect the greenhouse atfect but instead affect our air quality. Our problem is that burning coal, oil, and gas produces carbon dioxide, which adds to the supply already in the atmosphere, increasing the greenhouse effect and thereby increasing the temperature of the Earth so therefore its D.
