Ants obtain water mainly from their diet, such as by consuming moist foods or plants with high water content. They can also collect water droplets from sources like dew or rain, and some ant species even have workers that store water in their bodies to bring back to the colony. Additionally, ants might dig tunnels to find groundwater sources underground.
Which insect is often called a white ant?

Ants have no means of vocalizing the way cats, dogs and humans do. They communicate with each other primarily through pheromones - scent molecules. If ants make any sound at all, it's incidental to what they're doing, such as large carpenter ants chewing on wood, and you'd have to listen closely or use electronic amplification to be able to hear it.

What are insect feelers called?
Why is this question in chemistry? It should be in biology or entomology or something.
Well, the so-called feelers are what we call antennae. Radio antennae were named after the antennae of insects. The antennae are really modified legs, much as our lower jaws are modified gill arches.
Insects and other arthropods that have antennae (or "feelers") use them for various purposes. Many of them use them to feel things, but most also use them to smell or taste. Some actually use them to grasp things, such as male "fairy shrimp" that grasp females with their strong, bent antennae in mating. Male mosquitoes with their feathery antennae use them to listen for the vibration of the female mosquitoes' wings. Emperor moth males also have feathery antennae and use them to smell the sexual signal of the female.
Creatures that use their antennae for finding food or hunting, usually live in the dark and come out at night if they come out at all. Some such creatures do not in fact have antennae, or if they do, the antennae are not large, or much used in hunting. Instead they have very long delicate sensitive antenna-like legs that they use in much the same way. Examples include some spiders and whip scorpions.
Not exactly. The structural systems in insects are much more simplified than those in humans or other mammals. Insects have an open circulatory system (ie, no chambered heart or interconnected web of blood vessels like we have).
Fluid called hemolymph (similar in purpose to blood, but not the same thing) is moved around within the exoskeleton by peristaltic movements of a perforated dorsal aorta (what passes for a heart in this type of circulation) and muscle movement.
