Answer 2

Yes they do. If you've ever seen a ant farm you can see their work. The top layer we see is called a ant hill/mound. The bottom layer is the nest where the ants sleep, eat, mate, and socialize. The are rooms on the inside of the nest:

*The queen's room.

*The larva's room.

*The the workers room.

There are more rooms, you can look them up on the internet! Good luck! Hope you approved of this answer.
