You might ask yourself - '' Why don't ants eat chocolate? Its sweet like honey and sugar...''
To find out the answer you need to look at what sugar consists of. The main ingredient is cocoa which is a bitter plant seed which to milk and sugar are added to to make chocolate. You see if ants eat one little bit of the cocoa seed they'll die because their guts are just way to gentle to handle the bitterness of cocoa...

What funktion would be most harmed if you cut off an ants antenna?
Ants have antennae, used either to communicate with other ants of the colony and sense the environment or as a food tool.

Modification of insect legs in the morphological terms means changes according to the function required.
For example:
Insects have ambulatory legs having the most simple type of five major segments (coxa, trochanter, femur tibia and tarsus) for the most simple function i.e walking. Many other insects also have adapted their leg to perform other functions like cursorial for running present in cockroaches, raptorial for grasping prey these are prolegs of preying mantids have coxa very long and two rows of large spines on femur and tibia both, the femur have a groove between two spine rows in which tibia fits ,and natatorial meta legs of giant water bug have long hair on tarsus that help in swimming.

How do you get rid of ants inside of your house?
The best way is to prevent them from getting in. You can do this by limiting the amount of food in open view and keeping the floors clean, even then it's normal to find some and you can easily kill them with a shoe or newspaper. I wouldn't recommend pesticides because they're toxic to you and those around you. If you're seeing a lot (hundreds) it would be best to consult a professional exterminator.
Yes. Unicellular animals are just one cell, and you can't see cells with the naked eye. Things that are plainly visible are always multicellular, especially if they have clear parts like legs and eyes and such - those are impossible on a single cell!
The ant belongs to the Formica family.

What does it mean when black ants comes in your house?
If you see red ants attacking you, it means that you have displeased the gods and angered the fates. You must strive to appease the gods by rubbing organic lavender honey on your extremities and engaging in an orgiastic dance on top of the hill of the red ants until the gods are placated. They will usually send a sign, either in the form of chocolate raining down from the heavens or an unexpected pregnancy notice from the Archangel Gabriel, to show that they have been mollified. In the latter case, the gender of the supplicant is irrelevant.
An ant generally lives in a nest/colony made up of several hundred to several thousand ants. Some colonies have been found to have millions of ants. Most Ants have one large ant called a queen ant who lays all of the eggs. The vast majority of Ants in a nest are workers and they are female The only males are the ones that fly out of the nest and mate with a young queen ant so that she can start her own colony. Some ant colonies will have more than one queen. These are the nests that are really large. Most nests are found in the ground though some have been found in walls of buildings and in tree trunks. Really, ants can build a nest just about anywhere.
This depends on the type of ant and location.
In general, there is one day in the year when the colony of ants release winged Queens and males and they mate. The wings drop off and the males die.
(The Queen stores the sperm and uses it for the rest of her life to fertilize each egg she lays.)
In England this day is usually a very hot day in the summer (July/ August) and winged ants appear simultaneously from many nests. Sometimes there are two days when it happens.

What kind of relationship is between ants and aphids?
Aphids are predatory insects that suck the life out of the rose plants.
I think aphids are not predators.
In ecology, predation describes a biological interaction where a predator (an organism that is hunting) feeds on its prey (the organism that is attacked).
Predators may or may not kill their prey prior to feeding on them, but the act of predation always results in the death of its prey and the eventual absorption of the prey`s tissue through consumption
Aphids, also known as plant lice are small plant-eating insects,
