Explanation Ants like the sweetness of cookie crumbs and take them home to their anthills to share with the rest of the ants. Ants have a very social structure. When one ant finds a food source like a cookie, it leaves a trail for the other ants and tells them where to find the food. Ants do not fight over the cookie crumbs. Instead, they cooperate so that all the ants have food.
Ants are also very strong for their size.
An ant can carry a crumb that is three times its body size. Spinning Eggs Materials 1 hard boiled egg 1 raw egg 1 dish Procedure Hard boil one of the eggs.
