What happens if a queen ant dies?
After you kill the queen all the ants will die in starvation. Some species of ants will still continue to do work even though the queen died. Sometimes ants will come, but it won't likely happen. Also if the queen dies another ant becomes the new queen. This reminds me of something that happened to me as a child. i got ants from the top of my garden, then from the bottom of the garden, got the queens from both and put them in a jar together. the 2 ant colonies had a war with each other. It was AWESOME! after a few minutes one of the queens got severly injured (the other queens ants attacked it) and started limping. so then i let the ants go. the bottom of the garden ants returned home and so did the top of the garden ants, then 5 minutes later i saw some ants dragging the (now dead) injured queen back to the colony.
If female ants are born sterile which ones are queens?
The vast majority of female ants are sterile. It is unclear how they are chosen but there are a select few, and I say few because there are more than one that can reproduce and will take the place as the queen. About 100 000 female ants and possibly 10 reproductive ants, as a relative ratio. Almost all ants you will see ever are sterile and female. The reproducing female ants stay out of harms way, and there are more than one so if one dies the colony isn't doomed! Male ants are not common either as they do not live very long, and only have one function which is to mate with the queen.
What is an ants male name?
They are just called male ants. Nearly all ant colonies also have some fertile males called "drones" and one or more fertile females called "queens."
