2.How do ants remember where they live 
Ants remember where they live by leaving a scent trail so they can find their way home but for desert ants it's different they can’t leave scent trail or it will blow away  so they count there steps who ever knew ants could count their steps. So there was these scientist they tested out an experiment what they did was left one ant normal for the next one they cut of his legs and the last one they put stick on to its legs so when the ants tried to get home the one with long legs went past the house the one with its legs cut off got half way home and the normal ant go home perfectly so now the short ant had to count o higher numbers the one with long legs had to count the lowest number and normal one was just perfect.
