The Hippocampus. The hippocampus is a part of the limbic system. The limbic system is the area in the brain that is associated with memory, emotions, and motivation. The limbic system is located just above the brain stem and below the cortex. The hippocampus itself is highly involved with our memories.he limbic system also gives us that 'gut feeling.' The limbic system is vital to our survival. Therefore, the limbic system, including the hippocampus, is located in a very protected area of the brain. The hippocampus is a horseshoe-shaped structure.

Thereâs an oft repeated âfactâ that the humble bumblebee defies all known laws of physics every time it flaps its tiny little bee wings and ascends to the sky.s to the origin, itâs always possible, albeit somewhat unlikely, that a drunken scientist did indeed make a âback of an envelope (in some versions itâs a napkin) calculationâ that proved beeâs shouldnât be able to fly.
Bees are one of the main reasons that so many flowers are brightly colored. This is because they are attracted to the brighter colored flowers. As a result, these are the flowers that often get pollinated. Some colors have more influence on bees than others. Bees also see in a slightly different spectrum than humans. They are able to see into the ultraviolet part of the electromagnetic spectrum that we humans are not able to see. As a result of this type of vision, bees are also unable to see the color red, and are very attracted to the colors yellow and blue.
