Question

The flight of a bee and the flight of a hummingbird are similar in many ways, such as in speed of wing movement, ability to hover, and ability to back up. also, both hummingbirds and bees eat nectar, a diet shared by few other birds. in these respects, hummingbirds are more similar to bees than they are to other birds, such as robins and ducks. yet no one would classify hummingbirds with bees because their similar flight capabilities and diet

Answer 1

They won't, because those two are not the main characteristics used to classify organisms.

They have to be similar genetically (in the end, both bees and hummingbirds have the same origin but that's not he case) similar in the ways they behave and similar anatomically.
