TaskAllocation

Social insects such as ants, bees, and termites divide tasks—such as nest maintenance, foraging, and larval care—through the exchange of information among individuals. Understanding the mechanisms behind this division of labor is crucial for elucidating the fundamental principles of collective behavior.
