The ant is a kind of common insect. People were easy to find it in
everywhere, under the soil, on the leaves, or just on the road. They are too
tiny just 0.5cm-2.5cm length. And they also have colors like red, black, white
and yellow. The ant has three part of body: the head, the chest, and the
abdomen. They have six legs and two antennas on their head. Some ants have wings,
but most ants haven't. The ant is a omnivorous insects, they never particular
about food. The body of animals or insects, the seed, human’s food, includes
the wood. It’s difficult to find out which kind of food they don't eat. In general,
there are queens, females, males, and workers. Every ant family only has one
queen, she in charge of lay eggs. The female ants have a chance to become a new
queen. And the male ants have to protect the queen and to reproduce. These
three kinds of ant's quantity just a little, a large number of ant is the
worker. The main responsibilities of workers are to build and expand the nest,
gather food, feed larvae and the queen. Ant's life is very long, worker can
survive for several weeks to 3-10 years, the queen can survive for over 10
years, or even 100 years. A nest can be 1 to 10 years of growth in 1 place.
According to
the mechanics determination, an ant can lift 400 times more than its own weight
of things, but also can haul the object more than its own weight of 1700 times,
although they are tiny, they can move any big things if they want. Fortunately,
Most ants home is in the below ground, so that they can't effect human's live.
Ant is a typical social group. The
ant groups just like a army, each of ant has their own work, they never confused
about the work. For example, the chief engineer of ant just control the work of
other ants, they don't need to do that just distribute the work. In addition,
the ants always working together, they can move any food if they want, even
elephant's bone. So they have a strong body although they look really tiny. The
number of the ants determined that they can destroy any thing. I used to take a
interesting experiment: I took a cookie to feed ants. First of all. I found an
ant, then I put a cookie in front of the ants, The first discovered of ant
bites the biscuit, but he can't move the biscuit, so that he ran to the ant
hole quickly. After a while, a group of ants mightily to climb out, like an
army, to the place of cookies. There, the ant, according to their respective
duties, division, carrying the biscuit and climbed to the hole. In the middle
of road, the ants had a more than 20 centimeters high hills, took a long time
without food, or move in the past, but they are not discouraged, did not give
up this cookie, but also find a lot of companies to help them, finally the ants
across the hill and back to there hole with the biscuit, carefully to enjoy
their food.
Through the observation of ants move
things this phenomenon, make me understand a truth: as long as together without
the difficulties, personal power, and the weak group power is infinite.
