Explanation:
Detailed explanation-1: -Ant castes are queens, workers and males. The queen ant lays eggs.
Detailed explanation-2: -Most ants in a colony are female workers. Worker ants build and repair the nest, forage for food, look after the larvae (young), and keep the nest clean. Some worker ants defend the colony by biting, stinging, or spraying acid at attackers, and they are known as soldier ants.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ant Societies. Ants are social insects which form small to large colonies. A typical colony contains an egg-laying queen and many adult workers together with their brood (eggs, larvae and pupae). Workers are by far the most numerous individuals in the nest.
