What do you know about worker ants?

उत्तर
The homes of the ants are called ‘nests’ or ‘anthills’. Each nest has hundreds of little rooms and passages. The queen ant lays eggs in some of the rooms. Other rooms serve as nurseries for the grubs ( young ants). Some rooms serve as storehouses for food. Some rooms serve as reserved quarters for workers or barracks for soldiers. Cleaners also live in the nests.
