First of all, bees are attracted to flowers because of the pollen, scent, and bright color. They pollinate the flowers, opening an opportunity for the flower to reproduce.
Mutualism - both species benefit from their relationship. The bee comes to the flower to collect nectar as food, and brushes against the anthers of the flower, which are covered in pollen. The bee moves to another flower to collect nectar and rubs the pollen off on the second flower's stigma, fertilizing the flower. Thus, the bee receives a source of food from the flowers, and the flowers are pollinated by the bee.

Pollen and nectar.
In biology, mutualism is the relationship between two species where each individual benefits. A common example of mutualism is the relationship between a bee and a flower. The flower relies on the bee for pollination, while the bee uses the flower's nectar to make food.
