Have you ever observed an ant? you can’t say no but have you ever thought of what functions these tiny creative creatures can do. To list a few
- Meeting and greeting while living in groups that is why they are called social insects!
- They are organized …. sorry to say but more than us
- They have three classes -queens, males, and workers
- They construct their own colonies just like construction workers and engineers do for us
- There are even slave-making ants that capture other species territories.
- They respond to every passerby ant
- They maintain a line and unlike us follows it strictly
- They can lift weight 20-100 times of their own weight. this will always make our weightlifters jealous
- They have soldier ants for guarding the regions. wow, how strategic they are!
Well, these are few highlights about our tiny housemates. But keep’ jokes on us’ apart there is this thing to point out.
“These tiny bit size insects whose size ranges in millimeter can do so many tasks with having even smaller brain size which is hardly visible to naked eye. Imagine a human brain that can occupy the size of a fist can do what! “
A dialogue from the movie LUCY reads-“Life was given to us a billion years ago, now you know what to do with it”.
Just got this above thought while relaxing…
What capacity our brain can have is yet left for you to discover!
