Ants

nature

An antheap is another term for an anthill - a cone-shaped formation of soil and earth formed by ants and termites, under which the colony nests.

Yes but an ant farm is better, you get clean dirt with it and you can see all their galleries since sides are so close together.

Sorry, I wrote the following material without signing in. Anyone who can correct this, please do. (Jon Richfield)

In most species of ants the soldiers do not do much work like feeding the larvae or building the nest, or even storing food as the repletes of honeypot ants do. Soldiers of many species of ants don't even have jaws that permit them to feed themselves at all; they have to beg food from their nest-mates.

What is more, in some species of ants, like some species of Pheidole, in which the "soldiers" have large heads and big jaws, the soldiers are of no obvious use at all, fleeing danger while the workers do the fighting,

However, in most species of ants that have a "soldier caste", those soldiers do most of the fighting when there is some creature such as a large animal or a swarm of enemy ants attacking the nest. Soldiers of some species of ants have stings or squirts of formic acid or other nasty chemicals that they use for fighting the enemy, and nearly all soldier ants bite too. Some other kinds of soldier ants just bite. This they do while the workers grab as many larvae and eggs as they can and carry them to safety if possible.

The soldiers of at least some kinds of "army ants" join the workers when they go out hunting for animals to eat. They have huge jaws and not only help killing prey animals, but in tearing or cutting them up.

Some kinds of soldier ants have big heads with very heavy armour, with which they completely block the entrances to the nests, so that even if they don't do any actual fighting, they stop all sorts of enemies from getting in. This is a useful thing to do, because it also helps in keeping out small species of thief ants and other small parasites that otherwise could sneak in and out between the ants' legs without being noticed.

idi dont really know

The bugs didn't seem to have a segmented abdomen, in fact, it looked quite smooth. I don't think it has wings or else it could have flown away. Please answer.

A hard outer covering protects an insect's soft body and gives the insect its shape.

The resources that any species needs are far too many to list in detail. After reading the following, it will probably do you good to try to add new items to the list yourself.

1: Abiotic resources would include water, air, sunlight (if you think that ants do not need sunlight, ask yourself why leafcutter ants do not occur in caves or even in deep valleys where the sun does not shine), suitable soil, (bear in mind that soil is only partly abiotic), temperature and climate in general (ask yourself how many reasons there are why leafcutter ants occur only in the tropics) and nutrient minerals such as nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium, to mention just three.

2: Biotic resources would include enough food plants for the ants to gather, and enough of the right kinds of fungi to digest their collected leaves and convert them into suitable food for the ants. It also might include enough natural enemies to keep the natural enemies of the ants under control. Ants can't spend all their time fighting anteaters and Phorid flies.

Now you try to add a few to those 2 lists.

because his uncles were ants

Ants and flies are both insects, but that is about as much as they are like each other. Ants are descended from certain kinds of wasps and if you carefully compare the build of an ant and a wasp, you can see that they are very much alike; in fact some kinds of ants, especially the flying ants, look very much like wasps, and some kinds of wasps look very much like ants. Many ants, like many wasps, have stings, and most wasps, like most ants, can bite.

Flies do however differ from wasps, just as humans differ from horses, though both of us are mammals. Flies don't have stings, and they cannot bite, though some kinds, like horse flies and mosquitoes, have piercing mouthparts that they can stick through your skin to suck blood. Ants cannot do that, because their mouthparts are cutting or crushing jaws like pincers.

Flying ants each have four wings like most wasps and most other flying insects, and in a way, so do flies, but the flies are in the order Diptera (which means "two-winged ones"). In fact, flying flies do have four wings, not two, but their hind wings have shrunk into little clubs we call "halteres". When they fly, flies swing their halteres like tiny gyroscopes. They use those "gyroscopes" to keep their balance, and use their front wings for flying, much as we use our hind legs for walking and our front legs (which we call "arms") for balance (among other things).

So you could say that the difference between a horse and a human is much like the difference between a flying ant (or other type of wasp) and a fly.

Red ants bite people and also like to eat sweets but black ants only bite on skin but very slowly and does not itches very much and most imp it also bit on faces

well fleas love the sun because they can relax when insects ants bugs not sure but research the 1665 the great plague

yes it will kill scared you!

When you mess with their bed, and to get food

they live underground

They eat seeds, plants, sweet foods and are a pest if they get into your kitchen.

The suffixes -ent and -ant are used to turn verbs into adjectives or nouns. Some examples are defendant, contestant, ancient, efficient, and adolescent.
