Do you know Ants? Yes ... Of course you are very familiar with this type of insect. Each of us is very familiar with them, but what is unknown is only its characteristics. In general, ants are a very large number of species and individuals. The number of ants on the surface of the earth consists of more than 12,000 species, but only about 7600 species from 250 genera are named and explained. The greatest diversity of ants is in the tropics. widespread in all places except in the oceans, from the North Pole region to the north to the south in the Southern Hemisphere. But in regions like Antarctica they cannot live because the conditions are very cold.
Every animal that lives side by side with humans certainly has advantages and disadvantages to the environment around it, including the type of Insect. It also has advantages and disadvantages where it is, to find out its advantages and disadvantages. Let's look at the explanation below:
**1. Every ant community makes a nest on the ground. Ant nests on the ground can make air enter the soil and are useful for the types of insects that nest on the ground.**
**2. The benefits caused by ants, he eats pests, as enemies of farmers.**
**3. Plant-eating ants help the environment by eating disturbing plants.**
**4. Another advantage is that Ants fertilize the soil when processing food on the ground.**
**5. Ants can act as decomposers.**
**5. Equally important is that ants help spread seeds in the area where they live, so we often see many plants growing on their own.**
Every group of ants, both black ants and red ants, has their own community. Like the Black Ants, Dolichoderus thoracicus (Latin) lives in social organizations consisting of a number of individuals and forms a society called a colony. Ant colonies consist of groups called castes. The black stem consists of several castes, namely: queen, male, and worker. Labor is divided into two, namely workers and soldiers. Ants have different tasks, but still interact and work together to survive. And each ant has its own task depending on the type of caste that ants have.
Every ant in his group is very diligent in working without direction from the ruler of his group like us as humans. Ants are very enthusiastic about working day and night. Sometimes there are some ant properties that we can use but not mentioned here maybe in the next post. Thus the description / explanation of the characteristics of ants, hopefully useful. Thank you very much.
