1. anthill

   An ant colony is a population of a single ant species capable to maintain its complete lifecycle. Ant colonies are eusocial, communal, and efficiently organized and are very much like those found in other social Hymenoptera, though the various groups of these developed sociality independently through convergent evolution. The typical colony consists of one or more egg-laying queens, numerous sterile females (workers, soldiers) and, seasonally, many winged sexual males and females. In order to establish new colonies, ants undertake flights that occur at species-characteristic times of the day. Swarms of the winged sexuals (known as alates) depart the nest in search of other nests. The males die shortly thereafter, along with most of the females. A small percentage of the females survive to initiate new nests.

1. anthill

   An anthill is a mound of dirt or soil created by ants as they excavate their underground colonies. The mound is formed from the dirt and other materials that the ants bring to the surface as they dig tunnels and chambers for their colony. The anthill acts as an entrance or exit for the colony and also allows for ventilation. The size and structure of an anthill can vary greatly depending on the species of ant.

Examples of anthill in a Sentence

1. Tom Collier:

   All of this is an anthill made into a mountain, we've already got an additional plan. It's a plan we're confident of. We're mapping it.

2. Henry Louis Mencken:

   Life without sex might be safer but it would be unbearably dull. It is the sex instinct which makes women seem beautiful, which they are once in a blue moon, and men seem wise and brave, which they never are at all. Throttle it, denaturalize it, take it away, and human existence would be reduced to the prosiac, laborious, boresome, imbecile level of life in an anthill.
