Social colony
* A colony body
* Colonies achieve dimensions
  - adapt to different elevations, or degrees of drought, or soil types
* Colonies also contain adult worker ants that feed and care for the queens and developing brood
  - form in tree cavities and under loose tree bark
* Colonies are an adaptation to limited nesting and feeding areas
  - animal groups
* Colonies are areas that are controlled by an outside country
  - where several stork families live together
  - beneficial because they provide collective defense against predators
  - bodies
  - colonies
  - generally more complex and are composed of more individual cells
  - important, but they're rare because they're expensive to build and slow to grow
  - large and can contain many queens
  - large, often containing hundreds of queens
  - multiple organisms living together, which can be multi- or unicellular
  - become workers
* Colonies can be brittle and hard to distinguish from one another
  - characterized based on their color, shape, consistency, and type of edge they have
  - polygynous, which means they have more than one queen
  - begin producing new queens within six months of founding
  - consist of several hundreds of birds living in one big tree
  - form different shapes, and can even form different cell types
  - occupy and use a wide area of land to support themselves
  - reach considerable size, consisting of a large number of individual polyps
  - sometimes contain thousands of individuals
  - take up more complex forms because of an extra ingredient - life
* Colonies compose of individuals
  - many individuals
  - numerous individuals
* Colonies consist of adults
* Colonies consist of many individuals
  - small individuals
* Colonies contain ants
  - hosts
  - members
  - differ in shape, size, color, texture, type of margin, and other characteristics
  - displaying wild type phenotypes have mutant genes in different complementation groups
  - even thrive in the stumps of dead trees
* Colonies experience problems
  - significant problems
  - find homes
  - form on new growth and persist on the backs of leaves as shoots harden off
  - grow best in an anaerobic or microaerophilic environment using blood agar
* Colonies have ants
  - churches
  - crabs
  - establish churches
  - multiple queens, which also contributes to their survival
  - organizations
  - social organizations
  - soldier ants
  - structures
  - include individuals
  - living on a gastropod shell are either female or male
* Colonies may have poor survival
* Colonies need food
  - protection
  - special protection
  - supplemental food
* Colonies nest in soil and in voids like hollow doors and walls
  - voids likehollow doors and walls
* Colonies occupy areas
  - occur in regions
* Colonies often contain other species of birds
  - number in the hundreds and even thousands
* Colonies perform different roles
  - possess queens
  - produce offspring
  - provide habitats
  - reach ages
  - require protection
  - send off large numbers of winged reproductive termites, or swarmers
  - show three different growth form 'phases'
  - start with a single king and queen and develop slowly over the years
* Colonies suffer damage
  - little damage
* Colonies survive for long time
  - many years
* Colonies to provide pollination services
  - usually contain a single queen who is responsible for producing the eggs
  - vary enormously in strength and pollination effectiveness
* Colony social group.
* Many colonies gain independence but are still financially dependent on capitalist countries
  - practice religious freedom and seperation of church and state
  - take on a green colour because they contain algae
* Most colonies compose of individuals
  - consist of individuals
* Most colonies consist of many individuals
* Most colonies contain ants
* Most colonies have a basic flight pattern as they leave and return to the hive
  - only one queen
  - live in caves, mines and attics
  - start to disperse soon after the young are weaned
* Most colonies survive for long time
* Some colonies become genetic diversity
  - maintain genetic diversity
* Some colonies can consist of hundreds or even thousands of individuals
* Some colonies consist of animals
  - bees
  - female workers
  - millions of ants
* Some colonies contain animals
* Some colonies form global societies
* Some colonies have cell types
  - conductivity
  - fertile queens
  - immature stages
  - kings
  - pairs
  - pheromone
  - population size
  - queen wasps
  - single polyp
* Some colonies have small population size
  - tunics
  - wingless queens
  - wings
  - lead to oxygen depletion
  - possess ants
* Some colonies produce honey
  - myceliums
  - sugar
  - yellow myceliums
* Some colonies survive months
  - take animals
