What does the black desert ant's diet consist of ?

Answers

Answer:

The diet of desert black ants consists mainly of other dead insects.

Explanation:

The black ants got their name because of the characteristic color of their body, paws and head. In each nest, as a rule, live three types of insects - workers, males and womb. Most of the population consists of working ants that collect food, grow aphids, lay eggs and many others. The occupation determines the size of the ant. The black desert ants have their food based on dead insects, every day the operatives come out of their burrows and facing all the dangers of the desert go long paths in search of these insects.
Any type of ant can and will eat anything a human leaves behind, but they prefer sweet tasting food crumbs.

Please Help!!!! :) "Tell General Howard I know his heart. What he told me before, I have it in my heart. I am tired of fighting. Our Chiefs are killed; Looking Glass is dead, Ta Hool Hool Shute is dead. The old men are all dead. It is the young men who say yes or no. He who led on the young men is dead. It is cold, and we have no blankets; the little children are freezing to death. My people, some of them, have run away to the hills, and have no blankets, no food. No one knows where they are—perhaps freezing to death. I want to have time to look for my children, and see how many of them I can find. Maybe I shall find them among the dead. Hear me, my Chiefs! I am tired; my heart is sick and sad. From where the sun now stands I will fight no more forever."


Chief Joseph was not a war leader, but his actions and this speech cause him to be remembered as one. Why might he be considered a leader in the war?

U.S. forces commended his actions.
He fought U.S. forces for a long time.
He was the one who surrendered to U.S. forces.
He rescued his people from their horrible conditions.

Answers

Answer: C) He was the one who surrendered to U.S. forces.

Explanation: In the given excerpt we can see how Chief Joseph expresses his desire and decision to stop fighting and surrender, because his people were dying in the cold, with no blankets. Even though Chief Joseph wasn't a leader, he is remembered as one because he made a decision for himself, and in the behalf of  his children and of all his people (as a leader does), to surrender to U.S. forces and live in peace.

Answer:

He was the one who surrendered to U.S. forces.

Explanation:

He didn't want to be a war leader but he was a leader because he didn't want his people to suffer.
