C Correct answer
Explanation

The correct answer is 200 times per second. Honeybees beat their wings approximately 200-230 times per second, which creates the characteristic buzzing sound we hear. This rapid wing beating allows them to fly and hover while gathering nectar and pollen. Different bee species have slightly different wing beat frequencies.
