calledcolonies.They surviveby means of theircollectiveintelligence.Their decision-making poweris distributedthroughout the group;that is,no oneant orbee makesdecisions for thegroup.Instead,they worktogether.As DeborahM.Gordon,a biologistat StanfordUniversity,says,Ants aren*t smart.Ant coloniesare.”The sameis truefor beecolonies.Although beesand ants are quitedifferent physically,they have a lotin commonin termsof theirsocialbehavior.Specifically,honeybees andants havesimilar roleswithin the colony,both havecommunication systems,and bothhave the capacityfor learning.Ants communicateby usingchemicals calledpheromones,which canalert othersto dangerorto a food source.For example,whenworker antsfind apromising source,they letthe restof the colony know how tofind itby leavinga trailof pheromoneson theway backtothecolony.The otherants pickup themessage usingtheir senseof smell.Bees,ontheother hand,use movementto communicatewitheach other.Worker beessend messagesto each other bymeansof a dance.Different speedsand movementssend differentmessages.For example,when worker bees calledscouts goout tofind a new homeforthecolony,they returnand doa dancefor theotherworkerbeesthat
