Why does the bee die after the sting

It is known that when bees sting other organisms, the needle remains in the skin of the intestinal organism, which separates the bee's gut, leading to its death. Is that accurate and why bees have evolved in such a way that they die after sting and why bees make such a decision that they die in the first place?

To answer these questions, several important areas for this research should be clarified. First, the idea of genetic investment and how breeding strategies evolve in nature must be clarified accordingly.

Genetic investment is the proportion of investment that parents put in their genes to make reproduction work. For example, you are a genetic investment for your parents, who have invested about 50% of their genes to produce you. Of course, these ratios are approximate to illustrate the idea and actually vary.

The only direct reason I'm here today and my ability to write this article is to reprogram my genes. My grandparents have been breeding for hundreds of millions of years until the chain arrived for me today.

I'm also in my role doing everything I can to spread my DNA to the next generation, but this process is not limited to exclusive sexual reproduction. Of course, direct sex ensures that 50% of my DNA continues, but I also contribute to spreading my genes by helping my brother spread his genes, I help spread my genes by helping my cousins and I contribute to spreading mine by taking care of my grandchildren and all my family members. As long as my family members succeed in continuing through generations, a good proportion of my genes pass through generations, and if we bring together my family members as a whole, the genetic investment in them can be up to 600% of my original genes.

Family bonding is an instinctive link in which everyone contributes to spreading their genes by helping their relatives. That means that when your brother helps you, he does it to contribute to the spread of his genes, and when you help your cousins, you also contribute to the spread of your genes. Thus, the ratio of genetic investment to other species ends with bacteria, for example. This means that our compassion for the living is the result of our desire to help them spread their genes, which may be similar to our genes, although the similarity is less miserable compared to our human relatives and acquaintances.
Nice, but what does all this have to do with the question?
Understanding the genetic investment of organisms explains their breeding strategies. Bee breeding is very different from breeding.
