How Will Ants Take Over the World?
Whether you believe in astrology, science or not, you probably have heard of ants. These tiny creatures have existed on Earth for thousands of years. They are an important part of the ecosystem and a good source of food for many animals. They are also an effective pest control in some areas. They also have impressive cooperative skills.
Ants are considered to be one of the largest scavengers on earth. They clean up dead animals and debris, and scavenge plant material. In some cases, they use chemical warfare to kill their opponents. They also fertilize plants with nectar and carry food back to their nests.
Some species of ants even use explosions to take down their opponents. Some ant colonies also have pheromones, which are chemical cues that call for attention. They also have a complex social structure.
One of the most impressive traits of ants is their ability to survive under extreme pressure. They can withstand pressures of up to 5,000 times their own weight. They also have an average lifespan of four years.
They are also one of the largest social creatures on the planet. They have a complex society that includes a queen, and a group of worker ants. A queen releases pheromones when she’s ready to mate. The worker ants follow a pheromone trail with antennae. They also lay down chemicals to find food.
Currently, there are estimated to be at least 10 quadrillion ants on earth. This is a lot of ants, and is approximately 2.5 million ants per person.
