Differing task thresholds among workers are crucial to the efficient allocation of work in self-organized insect colonies. New evidence suggests that the rearing temperature of ant pupae causes lifelong changes in an ant's response threshold to temperature.
在自组织的昆虫群体中，工人之间不同的任务阈值对于工作的有效分配至关重要。新的证据表明，蚂蚁蛹的饲养温度会导致蚂蚁对温度的反应阈值发生终身变化。
