Did bees a type of insect exist on Earth as early as 200 million years ago? Such a theory is supported by the discovery of very old fossil structures that resemble bee nests. The structures have been found inside 200-million-year-old fossilized trees in the state of Arizona in the southwestern United States. However, many skeptics doubt that the structures were created by bees. The skeptics support their view with several arguments.
The article states that several skeptics' arguments about the old fossil that referred to bees support the idea that this structure was not created by bees and provide three reasons for support. However, the professor explains that not only is it possible that the bees made this structure perfectly, but is the theory unconvincing as well, and refutes each author's reasons.
First of all, the reading states that the preserved bee fossil has shown 100 million years old thereby, the 200 million years fossil is nothing to do with the bees nest. The professor refutes this point by stating that the fossil might have been to bees since the probability of other Resin material's existence strengthened bee 200 million years ago.
Second, the article claims that the flowering plant did not live 200 years ago. Given the bees' close association with flowering plants, unlikely bees could have existed before that time. However, the professor contends that the bees might feed on other non-flowering plants such as pine trees; hence, the bees might have adopted to feed after evolving the flowering plant.
Third, the reading avers that Given the bee nest was made by other insects, such as wood-boring beetles, lack caps for the fossilized chamber. the professor opposes this point by declaring that chemical cap has a unique characteristic in which by using the chemical analysis can recognize spiral caps material in such fossil caps found 200 million years ago
