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.
Condensation is the name for the phase of a gas changing to a liquid state. It is the opposite of vaporization, which is when a liquid changes to a gas state. An example of condensation is when water vapor condenses on the side of a cold bottle or glass when it makes contact with the surface.
