A. Aim
1. Knowing the habitat of ant around the faculty of science.
2. knowing the anatomy of ant.
B. Background

Insect belong in the great phylum of jointed-legged animals, the

Arthropoda. Of this phylum the insects are a highly specialized group
comprising the class Insecta. In the adult stage insects are characterized
primarily by having the body divided into three regions, the head, thorax,and
abdomen, and by the thorax bearing three pairs of legs. Both the body regions and
number of legs are functional groupings of parts, groupin:gs that are very different
from those of their original ancestors (John Wiler & Sons:1959:26).

Especially ant,A typical adult insect has three body regions, The anterior
region is the head, which bears eyes, antennae, and three; pairs of mouth-parts.
The next region is the thorax which is composed of three segments each usually
bearing a pair of legs; in many groups the second and third segments each
bear a pair of wings. The posterior portion of the body is the abdomen. it
consists of as many as eleven segments and has no legs~ -The eighth, ninth,
and tenth segments usually have appendages modified for mating activities
or egg laying~ The exoskel-ton in insects, as in other arthropods, provides
both the protection for the vital organs and the support which maintains the
body shape. The chief in ternal organs consist of the following parts: (1) a
tubular digestive tract; (2) a long valvular heart for pumping the blood; (3) a
system of pipelike tracheae for respiration; (4) paired reproductive organs
opening at the posterior end of the body; (5) an intricate muscular system;
and (6) a nervous system consisting of a brain, paired segmental ganglia,
and connectives (John Wiler & Sons:1959:43).
C. Tools and Material
Material
1. Ant
Tools
1. Magnifying glass
2. Stationary
3. Notebook
4. Camera

D. Methods
1. Finding ant around the faculty of science.
2. Observing the part of body ant by magnifying glass.
3. Recording the part of body ant that have been observed in the notebook.
4. Taking some picture of ant by using camera.
E. Observation Result

Habitat : Ants are found in small or

large trees , on the wall , pole
building , etc

Anatomy :
Ants have a 6 foot
Have three body part
( head,chest,stomach
area(abdomen))
The outside of the body is
covered by the outer frame
Ants have two eyes
Ants have antennae
Ants have jaws

F. Discussion
Habitat : Ants are found in small or large trees , on the wall , pole building , etc
Anatomy :

Ants have a 6 foot

Have three body part ( head,chest,stomach area(abdomen))
The outside of the body is covered by the outer frame
Ants have two eyes
Ants have antennae Ants have jaws

The Habitat and the anatomy of ants above are suitable with theory. Ants are found in small or large trees,
on the wall, pole building, and on the ground. Ants have three parts in their body there are head, chest,
and abdomen. They have two eyes who it called compound eyes. Ants also have an antennae, its function
is smelling about something around them. Ants have a jaw like scissor. Brain of ants have 250.000 cell.
G. Conclusion

1. Anthill most commonly found in pastures and are rarely found in lowland tropical forests, but
is more commonly found in forests and agricultural areas with an altitude of about 600 m. He
found a lot of stick in some trees, mostly in eucalyptus trees, pine mountain, kaha, and beech
trees, but rarely on trees with a trunk smooth and responsive as Eucalyptus. Anthill also grown
on treeless plains with low nutritional and above the height of the tree.
2. The Anatomy of Ant :

Ants have a 6 foot

Have three body part ( head,chest,stomach area(abdomen))
The outside of the body is covered by the outer frame
Ants have two eyes
Ants have antennae Ants have jaws
