16、expeditions for food use clues to lead themselves in the homeward direction, but with few landmarks in the poor land, scientists have wondered how the insects always take the most direct route and know exactly how far to march.The new study shows that counting their steps is an important part of the
17、 scheme.Over the years, scientists have proposed several theories for how ants find their way home. One is that they do it like honeybees and remember visual clues, but experiments showed ants can travel in the dark. Another theory is that because ants run at a steady pace, they could time how long
18、it took them to get to and from. Other studies have shown that once ants find a good source of food, they teach other ants how to find it.The ant “pedometer technique was first proposed in 1904, but it remained untested until now. Scientists trained desert ants to walk along a straight path from the
