A bee sees another bee and has to communicate with it or mate with it. It flies over to that flower and gets a bunch of pollen instead.

Well, it's like this: Bees carry pollen, which flowers use to reproduce. Therefore, if a flower looks like a bee, then bees know where to get the pollen and carry it off somewhere else. Well, that's the simple version, I think...

It repel animals who want to eat it. The animals who want to eat the flower think that it's a bee instead of a flower and if it eats it it will get stung.

Bees are attracted to it, therefore carrying the precious pollen to other plants.

camouflague (spelled wrong i think) other plant eaters or nector eaters will try to get the flower so by looking like a bee, it shows others that the plant is already taken
(guessing...)

It helps them not be pollinated by the bees, because bees don't want other bees polin
