Solution(By Examveda Team)

The process of leaving off the colony by the queen is known as Swarming.
Swarming is the process by which a new honey bee colony is formed when the original colony replaces the old Queen.
Swarming is the natural method honeybee colonies use for multiplying their colonies. They leave the hive with about half of the worker bees and as much honey as they can carry.
