Social insect behavior
Social insects, like bees, ants, and termites, live in organized communities where individuals collaborate for the colony's survival. They communicate through pheromones, sounds, and touch, coordinating tasks such as foraging, building, and defending their nest. Roles are defined, with workers, queens, and drones contributing to the group's success. This cooperative behavior enhances efficiency and adaptability, allowing colonies to thrive in various environments. The complex social structures and interactions exhibit remarkable examples of teamwork and collective intelligence, demonstrating how individual actions can benefit the whole community.
