What is the term for the framework in which honey is stored and the queen lays?

The correct term for the framework in which honey is stored and where the queen lays eggs is "frame." In beekeeping, frames are rectangular structures that fit into a hive and hold foundation or drawn comb, which provides a place for bees to store honey and pollen and for the queen to lay her eggs. The frames allow for easy inspection and management of the hive, enabling beekeepers to monitor the health of the colony and the progress of honey production. Each frame can be removed independently for checking, which is essential for hive maintenance and ensures the overall success of the beekeeping operation.
