Answer:

Bess make honey by collecting pollen or nectar then moisture by passing it mouth-to-mouth until the nectar turns into honey.

Step-by-step explanation:

"Most bees gather only pollen or nectar. ... When her nectar “sacs” are full, the honeybee returns to the hive. Nectar is delivered to one of the indoor bees and is then passed mouth-to-mouth from bee to bee until its moisture content is reduced from about 70% to 20%. This changes the nectar into honey."

(Sorry if this doesn't make sense)
