What special adaptations does a honeypot ant have and how do the adaptations help it live?

Honeypot ants are unique because they have a special group of workers that the rest will forcefeed with nectar, so much they will swell up and become unable to move. They'll hang from the ceiling of special chambers, their abdomen (butt) completely swollen. Whenever the other ants need food in a time of shortage, these honeypots will regurgitate their nectar to feed the rest. They're living storage. ^^
