Questions and Answers

What is the primary purpose of the Termite Colony's ventilation rate changing over time?

  • To ensure optimal humidity levels
  • To adjust to changes in temperature
  • To maintain a relatively constant level of CO2 (correct)
  • To respond to changing light conditions

    • Why do termites pick up grains of soil in low CO2 regions and deposit them in high CO2 regions?

  • To adjust the temperature within the colony
  • Due to differences in air pressure (correct)
  • To control the amount of sunlight entering the colony
  • To regulate the colony's humidity

    • According to Rule 1 for the termites, when should they pick up soil and when should they drop it?

  • Pick up soil during daylight hours and drop it during nighttime
  • Pick up soil from higher isotherm and drop it in a lower isotherm
  • Pick up soil in a low CO2 isobar and drop it in a high CO2 isobar (correct)
  • Pick up soil when there's high humidity and drop it when there's low humidity
