Ants

The discovery of ants is attributed to French entomologist René Antoine Ferchault de Réaumur in the mid-1700s. However, ants have been around for millions of years and were likely known to ancient civilizations even before Réaumur's formal classification.

The Queen Ant lays the eggs that hatch into larva that grow into ants, therefore no queen no ants. And also the same reason we do, to have a leader, rule the country ((Anthill in this case lol)) and to have leadership :D

No, black ants do not typically kill people with their bites. While the bites can be painful and may cause some minor swelling or discomfort, they are not typically dangerous to humans. It's important to clean the bite area and monitor for any signs of infection, but serious reactions are rare.

Bees collect pollen, make and eat honey.

Anything that can get to them: birds, bears, raccons, spiders, ants, wasps, frogs/toads - it's a dangerous life!

They are white and are about half the size of a grain of rice.

no it is and invertebrate, all insects all stupid :P

Most religions do not believe that ants have souls and therefore do not have a concept of heaven for them. Instead, ants are seen as part of the natural world and their existence is not typically tied to an afterlife.

Some species of ants have been observed engaging in same-sex behaviors, such as grooming and mounting. These behaviors are believed to serve social functions, such as forming and maintaining social bonds within the colony.

Driver ants live in sub-Saharan Africa and parts of Asia. They are known for their nomadic lifestyle, moving their colonies from place to place in search of food and suitable nesting sites. They typically reside in underground tunnels or bivouacs made from their interconnected bodies.

It a common misconception that ants are the sole suckers in life; this is blatantly false, although many people still live within the comfortable realm of that delusion (for reference, see Happy Days). In truth, ants appear highly successful in comparison to the utter futility of human existence. However, unlike humans, ants are much too busy living to wonder why they suck at said task.

If 'as big' means 'as big as seen' then the answer would probably be the sun-after all we don't see it the right size because of its distance, and neither would ants. So an ant could see the sun the size of a grapefruit, but of course to the ant a grapefruit is larger. Of course this argument is flawed because ants have no eyes. However if you mean compare the actual size of humans and the sun and the actual size of ants and the Sun. The Sun is 1 million km wide. We are approximately 1 1/2 metres. If you say an ant is 1 1/2 cm high you still want something 10,000,000 km wide to compare it with-slightly less than the size of the Earth.

The scientific name for a black Carpenter ant is Camponotus pennsylvanicus. The scientific name for a red "fire" ant is Solenopsis invicta. Ants are also related to wasps and bees, belonging to the order Hymenoptera.

Most ant baits are Boric-based. Any pyrethrum insecticide (contact sprays) etc. are.

Ants natural predators are insects other than the Hymenoptera, arachnids, reptiles, amphibians, birds, mammals, and fungi. Naturally everything will prey on ants from an anteater to sparrow. Even ants will prey on other ants such as Fire Ants and Army Ants. Though on the flip side ants will prey on anything from other insects to amphibians so long as they're in large numbers (like the Army Ants).

Yes, in some parts of India, especially in the Northeastern states, red ant eggs are considered a delicacy and are consumed as a traditional food item. They are usually eaten cooked or fried and are said to have a unique, slightly sour taste.

An ant typically weighs around 1-5 milligrams, depending on the species. In terms of height, an ant can range from about 1.5 to 20 millimeters, with worker ants generally being smaller than queens.

Ants are not usually attracted to apples unless they are decomposing and beginning to ferment, which releases a sweet aroma that can attract them. Otherwise, ants are more commonly drawn to sugary substances like honey or sugar water.

Both carpenter ants and acrobat ants will bite. The carpenter ant rarely bites a human and they are not poisonous. The acrobat ant is quick to bite and this can cause pain and itching but they are not poisonous.

Yes, chickens will eat fire ants as part of their diet. Fire ants are an excellent source of protein for chickens and they'll eagerly consume them if given the opportunity. It's important to note that chickens should not be the sole method of fire ant control as they cannot completely eradicate an infestation.

Anteaters usually only have up to 2 babies max a year this is because anteaters are pregnant for 6 months and they normally only have 1 baby at a time. The mother then cares for the baby for a year sometimes letting the young nurse for the whole year. So it would only be every year and a half to two years that they would give birth.

if you want any more facts on anteaters this is a great sight.http://www.maiaw.com/anteater/

Most ants do not fly. However, in may ant species the newly hatched queen ants (and their male counterparts) emerge with functional wings which they use to disperse and mate. Once mated they then normally shed their wings prior to establishing a new nest/colony. Thus they fly to disperse their species into new territories.

Male driver ants are typically around 1-2 centimeters in length. They are smaller than the larger worker ants in the colony.

Yes. Army ants can eat any thing in their path.

Of course. Fire ants burn their enemies with flame-throwers, and then they have a lovely grilled-to-perfection human! They like to start at the feet, and work their way up. They also like to chew on the bones to strenghten jaw muscles.

The famous hairdresser who appeared in the recent series of Ant and Dec's Saturday Night Takeaway was Nicky Clarke.

There are over 12,000 known species of ants, but it is estimated that there could be as many as 22,000 species in total. Ant species continue to be discovered and described by scientists around the world.
