1.- How do we get honey from bees? Explain the process from beehive to table. Why is honey so good for us? What other products do we get from beehives?

2.- Which arthropods are edible? Which ones are eaten in Spain? Which ones are eaten in other countries? Look for recipes that have mollusks as the main ingredient.

3.- What is malaria? How is it transmitted? In what countries is malaria a severe problem? How many people are infected every year? Look for possible measures for prevention and cure.

4.- What are locusts? What type of animal are they? In which countries is there a danger of locusts destroying farmer’s crops? How fast can a swarm of locusts eat their way through a field of crops? What can be done to prevent this from happening?
