> It's especially interesting considering that all of the workers are sterile, so fitness is shared, and dependent on the queen. That's why it makes sense to think of the colony as a single organism. In the same way, your hands can only reproduce when the rest of you does, in an orderly manner, and we think of you as a unified organism. If hands could bud off independent mini-hands, you might see less cooperation from them over the course of your life. |
