Bumblebees have a long tubular proboscis language called. Which is composed of various elements or mouthparts, using the proboscis of bumblebees are able to absorb nectar from the flowers on which they feed often said external digestive organ is not only complex and very useful, but is also designed to expand when feeding on flowers in which the nectar is difficult Abscess. 

Also when quench their thirst of floral nectar, the Bumblebees can get its proboscis and getting it his chin to his chest and to facilitate their flight from flower to flower, using the forest, fields of flowers; and to and from the hive.

Bumblebees often mix their saliva with pollen gathered from the flowers they visit

They have salivary glands in your chest cavity to help them in this previous digestive process. When this mixture of saliva and regurgitated pollen is eventually dries and hardens hard, thus making it very useful for the construction of honeycombs, nests and repairs within the hive, such as when an intruder enters. From this mixture are built hexagonal cells containing valuable honey.

These bee insects. Bumblebees; have a number of glands in your stomach that quite incredibly secrete wax

Which is cleverly used by bumblebees for building and repairing their nests, also this same wax is in turn used by bumblebees for the construction of their nests, developing receptacles subsequently stored valuable, nourishing; and coveted honey, also with this same wax also contruyen cells also besides honey contain pollen, wax and royal jelly which is a combination of the above, all highly nutritious food substances which are fed to the hatchlings and Bumblebees same.

Bumblebees have a special circulatory system, known as open circulation system

In which the internal organs and organelles Bumblebee irrigated or coated on all sides, as if the same were contained in a soup, which is actually the blood of hemolymph Bumble and Bees, this blood type: The hemolymph is typical of arthropods. In the specific case of the Bumblebees his "heart" is not a "heart" but a tube that runs along the back or back of the bumblebee by said tube is ejected hemolymph while this has the ability to push and thus or to circulate through all the organs of the insect.

Bumblebees unlike their close relatives the Bees, are better adapted to withstand the cold because they have a layer of thick and long that covers their body hairs

This property on your face, not only facilitates adaptation to temperature changes acting as a thermal insulator and potent regulator; but also also makes it easier for Bumblebees collect larger amounts of pollen from flowers to their relatives the Bees.

Like many other Hymenoptera Bumblebees are the females who own sting, unlike males Bumblebees have no sting

Another notable difference between males Bumble and Bumble female is that the female Bumblebees are: corbiculae on their legs to facilitate the collection of pollen, but males do not have these corbiculae Bumblebees and perhaps why no male bumblebees collect pollen flowers, the above is another typical feature of some Hymenoptera.
