On the left is the anatomical structure of lar-
Spiracles vae, whose care is undertaken by other bees. It
is absolutely impossible for such a creature,
which resembles an eyeless morsel of flesh, to
make its own decisions and to produce the
chemical substances necessary for its develop-
ment.

such a claim would be tantamount to accepting that the larval bee pos-
sesses the information needed to manufacture the chemical formula and is
capable of mathematical calculations. That would be an unscientific fan-
tasy.
However, one most important point needs emphasizing here. Even if
the creature in question did possess conscious awareness, that would still
alter nothing, because it is out of the question for any living thing to de-
velop, on its own, a system, which doesn’t already exist in its body.
Human beings, for example, are the only living things in nature which
possess logic and reason. Despite that, however, it is impossible for hu-
mans to develop inside their own bodies’ systems to enable the produc-
tion of even a very simple chemical formula. That being so, it would be
illogical and irrational to maintain that an insect could no something that
human beings, with their reason and consciousness, cannot.
How does the thread used by the larva in cocoon spinning come about?
