Fossil structures not created by bees
Some structures similar bee nests were discovered in very old fossils. The passage mentions that some argue these are not truly nests of bees, since there are no evidence of bee surviving during the time dated bace to the fossil, and bees may face with shortage of food. But the lecture considers them unconvincing.
The passage begins by arguing that none of existence of actual bees' fossils have been found until today. Nevertheless, the lecture counters this, pointing out that the formation of fossils require a special chemical material provide by pinetree, and this kind of trees were not exist during the time when the above fossils were formation. Thus, one cannot expect the discovery of fossils of bees during that time. Therefore, the assertion of the passage does not sound reasoning.
Furthermore, the passage assumes that bees cannot survive during 200 million years ago since they don't have enough flowering plants which are the major sources of their foods. The lecture, however, suggests this may not be merited by the evidence. An appropriate is not very far to seek. For instance, bees may originally eat other plants other that flowering plants. With the gruadlly popular growing of the flowering plants, bees transform their habitate to mainly eat them, until today. The passage cannot bolster the recommendation without ruling out the refutation.
Last but not the least important, even if the evidence turns out to support the passage that the structures in the fossils lack details compared with today's bee nests, one critical fact is left out of consideration. The lecture points out that the passage neglects the truth that the two nests both have common chemical component, which is widely used in today's bee nests to prevent from water. Hence, the extence of this material may indicate the structures are truly bee nests at that time. The passage must explain more persuasively to reach the cited conclusion.
