Ant colonies operate with no central command, yet manage complex tasks and adapt to change by relying on simple local interactions. Each ant makes decisions based on brief antennal contact, using chemical cues to adjust roles as conditions shift. In mature colonies, these decentralized rules result in stable, efficient group behavior, even though half the ants may appear to do nothing. Over millions of years, this flexible organization has allowed ants to flourish in almost every environment on Earth.
