[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

Bees ultimately contribute to direct ecosystem services by pollinating plant species that produce food. This is crucial for agricultural crops, fruits, and vegetables that humans rely on for sustenance. Without bees, many of these plants would not be able to reproduce, leading to a decline in food availability and diversity. Bees play a vital role in ensuring the productivity and sustainability of ecosystems by promoting plant reproduction through pollination.
