Why does a queen ant have wings and the drones and workers dont?

The queen honey bee usually leaves its nest only twice in its life. The first occasion is when she is about five days old and leaves the colony on a mating flight. The only other time that she might leave the colony is if they decide to swarm and she will fly with about half of the bees in the colony and go and look for a new home. She needs wings to do both of these things.

How do you tell if a ant is a boy or a girl?

Ants are a social/hive/colony insect. The colony has one female queen (which will be very large) and one male ant (which may have died after fertilizing the queen). All the rest of the ants in the colony are sterile workers (no mater how big they are or what they look like). About once a year the queen will lay fertile eggs and these will grow to become immature males and females. These immature ants will normally have wings and will leave the nest to mate and start new colonies. The females are normally bigger than the males because they need the fat reserves to start rearing a new brood.


Can queen ants sting?

Not all ants have sting. Those species of ants that have a sting in the end of their abdomen can sting whether it is a worker or a queen. The only member of such species that can't sting is the male ant whose only purpose in the colony is to fertilise the queen or gyne during the nuptial swarm.


Is there such thing as a ant with wings?

The Queen originally had wings but soon after mating, looses them and has her millions of lave. The lave turn into ants and become her workers. The workers purpose is to mate. Once mated the male dies and the female grows wings and soon becomes a queen. The process continue but most ants do not make it. Only the female has wings. Hope I helped :)


Is there such thing as boy ants?

yes there are males of almost every species. The male ants are called drones and are solely for the purpose of mating with the queen. they do not live very long though after that. Although they exist, it would be very rare to see one, because all of the worker ants are sterile females.

Ants are created through a process called metamorphosis. They begin as eggs laid by the queen ant, hatch into larvae, undergo pupation, and eventually emerge as adult worker ants. Ant colonies are highly organized social structures where each member has specific roles and responsibilities.
