<\/span><\/h2>\n\n\n\nAll ants are born from eggs produced through either sexual or asexual reproduction. These eggs through haplodiploidy can hatch into male or female ants. <\/p>\n\n\n\n
After hatching, they then enter the larval and pupal stages of development. During these stages, nature and nurture play a role in determining the type of adult an ant turns into. Depending on genetics and nourishment an ant may become a queen, worker, or drone.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
Ants are oviparous. They are all born through eggs which hatch into larvae. Depending on several factors, these larvae may develop into queens, workers, or drones. In this article we\u2019ll learn more about these factors and how ants are born as we discuss the following: We\u2019ll also look into ant reproduction and life cycle.
