Can anyone help me with the parsing of 10 across please. The clue is "A north American bee, I love honey - it's ability to revivify" (9). I'm sure the answer is "anabiosis" but I don't understand how "honey" gives you "sis". Any help greatly appreciated.

My Bradfords dictionary defines honey as sis.
Not sure either really .Anabiosis is what I had .
Americanism possibly ..honey ..sister .
A na b ( a north american bee )I ..o (love) sis (honey)
Yes that's OK. Initial letters of first 5 words followed by O, Sis defined as sweetheart.
sweetheart and honey just a slaneystar posts.

Many thanks, shaneystar 2 & Davemano.
and... the ability to revivify of course is anabiosis :)
The ability to return to life after apparent death.
So make sure you get a kiss from a honey if you think you're about to peg out:)
That's maybe the secret behind the reincarnation of the various Doctor Whos
