Life of the ants@

Do you know ants are living creatures with the densest population in the world? It is conceivable, the comparison for every 700 million ants that will live to the world, is only about 40 human births alone. And much more information about this little creature that we will discuss in this paper.
Ants are eusocial insects derived from the Formisidae family, and ants are included in the Himenoptera order along with bees and wasps. Ants live in groups or "colonies" as well as a society organized in living with its neighbors, who have civilizations just like humans. As social beings, ants are divided into worker ants, male ants, as well as queen ants. Each ant colony sometimes consists of thousands of ants, an ant colony can master and use a large area to support their activities. Ant colonies are sometimes called superorganisms because of their colonies that form a unity.
Despite its relatively small size, the ants are the second most powerful animal in the world. The first position is occupied by the Rhino Beetle with the ability to sustain the burden weighing 850 times its own body weight. Male ants are able to sustain loads weighing fifty times their own body weight, comparable to elephants that can only support burden weighing twice their own weight.
