Question 2: Where do ants live? Explain their homes.

Answer: Ants live in their comfortable homes called ‘nests’ or ‘anthills’. Each has hundreds of little rooms and passages. In some of the rooms, the queen ant lays eggs. Others are nurseries for the young ones called grubs. Workers have their reserved quarters. Some rooms serve as storehouses for their food. Soldiers have separate barracks.
