Who knows insects in particular and ants in particular

What are the characteristics and life characteristics of ants in "Insects" are as follows.

Peculiarity.

The external form of an ant is divided into three parts: head, thorax, and abdomen, and has six legs. The ant eggs are about millimeters long, irregularly oval, milky white, and the larvae are worm-like and translucent. Worker ants are small in size, with a body length of about millimeters and a brown and yellow body, which is easy to find when a single ant is looked at closely.

Both male and female ants are relatively large.

Characteristics of life

Housing, ants generally build their nests underground, and the scale of underground nests is very large. It has good drainage and ventilation measures. Generally, worker ants are responsible for building nests.

Lifespan ants have a long lifespan, with worker ants living for a few weeks to a few years, and queens living for years or even ten years. An ant nest can grow from 1 to 10 years in one place.

The feeding habits of hervorous ants are simply divided into the following items: meat-eating, omnivorous and carnivorous, omnivorous vegetarian, and vegetarian.

Ant (ant) is a kind of insect, also known as ant, Xuanju, kun mayfly, mayfly ant, belonging to the phylum Arthropod, Insecta, Hymenoptera, Ant family. There are many species of ants, there are more than 11,700 species known in the world, there are 21 subfamilies and 283 genera, and there are more than 600 species of ants that have been identified in China.

New species of ants that reproduce asexually have also recently been discovered. Ants have a long lifespan, ranging from a few weeks to 3-10 years for worker ants and several years or even 10 years for queens. An ant nest can grow for several years or even more than ten years in one place. It is important to note that termites do not belong to ants.

Souvenirs Entomologiques, also known as The World of Insects, The Tale of Insects, Entomological Notes or The Story of Insects, is a ten-volume work on biology written by the French entomologist and writer Jean-Henri Casimir Fabre. The first volume was first published in 1879 and the entire book in 1907.

The work is an insect biology work that summarizes the species, characteristics, habits and marriage habits of insects, records the real life of insects, expresses the spirituality of insects when they struggle for survival, and also records the motivation, life ambition, knowledge background, living conditions and so on of Fabre's obsession with insect research.

The author integrates the colorful life of insects with his own life perception, and looks at insects with human nature, revealing the author's respect and love for life between the lines.

In April 2020, it was included in the Reading Guidance Catalogue for Primary and Secondary School Students of the Basic Education Curriculum and Textbook Development Center of the Ministry of Education (2020 Edition).

The characteristics of ants in "Insects" are:There are 21 subfamilies and 283 genera of ants, and the main classification system of 16 subfamilies is used, and compared with the system of 21 subfamilies, the new system divides several subfamilies from the mammoth ant (ponerine). Generally, the body is small, the color is black, brown, yellow, red, etc., and the body wall is elastic, smooth or slightly hairy.

The mouthparts are chewy, and the palate is well developed.

The antennae are knee-shaped, the stalk nodes are very long, the terminal 2 3 nodes are distended, and the whole antennae are divided into 4 13 segments. The abdomen is knotted. Divided into winged or wingless. The distance of the forefoot is large, comb-shaped, and it is a horn cleaner (used to clean the antennae).

Social Characteristics:

Ants are the most famous architects in the animal world. They use their jaws to dig holes in the ground and build their nests by carrying sand one by one. The "chamber" of the anthill will remain in its original form unless the soil is severely dried out.

Ant research expert Walter Chilgel models an anthill. He poured liquid metal, paraffin, or orthodontic plaster into the colony of the invading red fire ants, solidified it, and then dug it out.

Ants are insects. Ants belong to the insect class Hymenoptera, and ants have the signs of insects, because the characteristics of insects are that they have three parts: head, thorax, abdomen, and 3 pairs of legs.

Ants are mostly black or red and white, and most species have polymorphic phenomena, which are social insects, and are one of the three major "social insects" in the world.

Each type of ant is divided into female, male, and worker ants, and the soldier ant is a variant of the worker ant. Both females and males have wings, while worker and soldier ants do not have wings. Ants have a very mixed diet, most ants will dig the soil to build nests, and can store food, in winter they hide in the nest in a dormant state for the winter, some species of ants do not sleep, in the active state of winter.

Ants are very closely related to humans, some species are harmful to humans, and some species have a beneficial side to humans, but in general, there are more harmful and less harmful in places where humans live, and they need to be controlled.

Ants are social insects that are close relatives of wasps. Ants are known to have appeared as early as the Cretaceous period, probably evolved from the primitive wasp that appeared in the Jurassic, with the main difference being that the ant's antennae are distinctly knee-like curves, and the wasp's abdomen is a whole.

Ants, belonging to the class Hymenoptera. Ants are short for all ant species. There are many species of ants, there are about 15,000 species in the world, and there are more than 300 species known in China, some of which are harmful to humans, but some are beneficial or harmful to humans.

So ants are insects.

Morphological characteristics

The body of an ant is divided into three parts: head, thorax, and abdomen. The size of the ants varies widely, ranging from 1 mm to 20 mm in length, with the smallest thief ants reaching no more than 2 mm in length. The body color of ants is mostly brown, black, brown, and orange.

Some have markings, and there are obvious thin waist joints between the chest and abdomen, which are dull or have a metallic luster. The body of ants is smooth, or has pubescence, spines, stripes, reticulations, and protrusions.

The shape of the head of ants varies greatly, and there are shapes such as round, oval, square, rectangular, etc., and it is usually broad. The weight of the head to the specific gravity of the body is the largest among terrestrial animals.

The structure of the ant's thorax is distinct, and its structure varies according to the species, and the first abdominal segment (and thoracoabdominal segment) is elongated by healing with the posterior thoracic phase. The thorax and abdomen are also called the posterior thorax or the back of the thorax and are well developed, or flat, the posterior is straight, obliquely truncated or convex, and often toothed or spine. The thorax is located behind the thoracoabdominal segment, and the anterior end of the abdomen is conspicuously constricted to become the ventral stalk.

The abdomen of some ants (e.g., subfamily Leafcutter Ants, etc.) consists of two segments, while the rest of the genera consists of one. The ventral peduncle knot is mostly globous or scaly, convex or concave above; Some are deeply indented, divided into left and right lobes, and some become two spikes, often with protrusions below; The front and rear sides are straight or sloped, but some are convex or concave, and are often toothed, crepe, or dotted.
