Among the options provided, the following reproduce by parthenogenesis:
- **Honey bee**: In honey bees, unfertilized eggs develop into drones (males) through parthenogenesis, while fertilized eggs develop into female workers or queens.
So, the honey bee is the correct answer.
Hydra can reproduce asexually through budding, flatworms can reproduce through various means including fragmentation, and bacteria typically reproduce by binary fission, not parthenogenesis.
