Larger colonies consist mostly of sterile, wingless females forming castes of workers, soldiers, or other specialised groups. Nearly all ant colonies also have some fertile males called drones and one or more fertile females called  queens .The colonies are described as superorganisms because the ants appear to operate as a unified entity, collectively working together to support the colony.ome arthropod species spend part of their lives within ant nests, either preying on ants, their larvae, and eggs, consuming the food stores of the ants, or avoiding predators. These inquilines may bear a close resemblance to ants.
1 Vaporization: the substance changes from a liquid to a gas. 2  Sublimation: the substance changes directly from a solid to a gas without going through the liquid phase. 3  Deposition: the substance changes directly from a gas to a solid without going through the liquid phase.
The phase change that is the reverse of condensation is evaporation. This question is archived. Sublimation is the transition of a substance directly from the solid to the gas phase without passing through the intermediate liquid phase. Sublimation is an endothermic phase transition that occurs at temperatures and pressures below a substance's triple point in its phase diagram.
