According to the focused on positioning, the original text clearly points out that there are four age groups, so the answer is 4.

At the end of the paragraph, we found a description of predation, which mentioned that old ants were as aggressive as young ants. Whether the word meaning or part of speech meets the requirements of the question, it is determined as the answer.

Answer analysis: The relevant content of the ant brain mainly focuses on paragraph 5. After seeing the subtitle, turn your attention to this part. According to the first two sentences of paragraph 5 located by dyng cells, it can be seen from the stem structure that the space needs to be filled with a word that is parallel to age, so the location is determined as the answer.

Answer to question 9: FALSE
Corresponding to the original text: Paragraph 2: Taken more rates can live for most 30 years and stay fit for near their entire lives
Answer analysis: The second sentence of paragraph 2 mentions: "Naked zokors can live for nearly 30 years, and the article comes from the old roast duck, IELTS, who has kept healthy throughout his life.". It can be seen that this kind of creature can also remain active for most their whole lives. The description of "Pheidole dentata is the only known animal" in the question stem is inconsistent with this, so the answer is FALSE.
Answer to question 10: TRUE
Corresponding to the original text: Paragraph 3: Unlike all previous studies... her work tracked the ants from the time the pupae became adults, so she knew their exact ages.
Answer analysis: In the middle of paragraph 3, it is mentioned that "unlike all previous studies, she started tracking ants from pupae to adults, so she knew their exact ages". The first person in the question stem corresponds to like all previous studies, precise data about the insights' age corresponds to exact ages, that is, the main information points in the question stem can be found in the original text, so the answer is TRUE.

Answer analysis: In the back of paragraph 4, it is mentioned that "Giraldo expects that the elderly ants will perform poorly in all tasks. But these elderly insects are excellent larval caregivers and trace trackers". It can be seen that the experimental results are not consistent with Giraldo's expectations, so it is judged that the stem is FALSE.
Answer to question 12: NOT GIVEN
Corresponding to the original text: Paragraph 6: Scientists have looked at some similar aspects in lies, but the results of recent bee studies were mixed
Answer analysis: The original text does mention the research on bees, but it only says that the experimental results are mixed, and it does not mention the content of research methods, so the answer is NOT GIVEN.
Answer to question 13: TRUE
Corresponding to the original text: Paragraph 3: In the lab, P. dentata worker ants typically live for around 140 days
Paragraph 7: Out in the wild, the ants probably don’t live for a full 140 days thanks to predators, disease and just being in an environment that’s much harsher than the comforts of the lab.
Answer analysis: Paragraph 3 of the original text points out that P. dentata can generally live to about 140 days in the laboratory.
