Scientists estimate that there are more than 20,000 species of ants. The species range in size from 1 mm long to 38 mm long and live in most environments. The diets of ants range from
flowers and seeds to fluids from their own larvae. Ants have been able to successfully inhabit
so many different environments because their populations have been able to -
A fill niches usually occupied by mammals
B occupy habitats that have no other life-forms
C mate with other species of insects
Dadapt to a variety of habitats and food sources
