It depends on how the leaves are modified, but probably not. Most leaf modifications will decrease photosynthetic output due to increased storage capacity or defense against predators (needles). The ants probably wouldn't affect photosynthesis because the leaves aren't generally modified for greater photosynthesis anyway.
Ants are primarily omnivores, eating both plants and animals if possible. There are certain types of ants, such as the odontamachus, which are carnivorous, and leaf cutter ants, which are herbivores.
People like to call them Sugar ants. There are a variety of very small ants found throughout Florida. A good source for the most common pest ants in Florida is found here, http://flrec.ifas.ufl.edu/entomo/ants/Pest%20Ants%20of%20Fl/ These are the smaller ants on the list: Bicolored Trailing Ants Destructive Trailing Ants Ghost Ant Little Fire Ant Pharaoh's Ant Rover Ant
Well, the largest ants in the world are found in South-East Asia and The Australian bulldog ants are among the biggest, and those are about 6 centimetres. So in that matter, there are no 'giant' ants.
the one that kills the ants...
Ants employ their jaws (mandibles) mostly for carrying food back to the nest and in it's defense .
If the ants were removed from the acacia tree the trees would be stripped of their leaves by elephants. The ants serve as a defense mechanism for the trees.
Red ants are able to bite to defend themselves against predators. Black ants lack this defense mechanism so they tend to move a faster rate of speed to get out of harms way.
Soldier ants are responsible for protecting the colony from threats such as predators and other ant species. They have larger heads and powerful mandibles that they use for defense and to attack intruders. Soldier ants may also participate in foraging and nest maintenance activities within the colony.
This occurs after the ants began marching towards Leiningen's plantation. Once they do, he begins coming up with various defense methods. He builds a water- filled ditches as well as concrete ditches that have gasoline flowing from them.
They have a hard exoskeleton that protects them from some small predators like ants, but it is not effective against mammals, reptiles, and other large predators.
To protect themselves from the enemies. Just like how lions have claws used for scratching or holding down the animal. If you stepped somewhere where there's lots of plants they'll sting you cause you're a danger to them.
Good question.Ants helps plants or trees and in return the tress or plants helps them.The process is called Myrmecophily where ants take their abode or shelter on some tress like mango,jamon etc.These ants take parts in destruction of enemy acting as a troop guards.In lie of defense,the plants or tress provide food and shelter to these plants.
yeah they do blow up you pyhsco what kinda idiot don't know that Been sarky if u ain't figured you since your stupid
Yes ants do produce ants to continue the family.
red ants
No. Ants will move however they find best to find food, and this is not affected by the weather. Most of the time, scattered ants are scouts searching for food, and ants moving in a line are ants following a trail to or from food/supplies. Ants do infact move to the weather. If it is about to rain they will all be moving around thier nest in a hurry try to fix up and holes where water can get in. They do move out and around further when it isn't going to rain but they do stick closer when it is going to rain.
