For my science discovery I am going to discover ants. Like all insects ants have six legs. Each leg has three points. Each ants brain has about 250,000 brain cells. A human brain has 10,000 million brain cells, so a colony of 40,000 ants has about the same size brain as a human. The average life span of a ant is 45-60 days. Also ants can lift 20 times their own body weight. The Black ants Wood ants have to sting what so ever to them, but they can squirt a spray of formic acid. As you can see ants are really small animals.
My science discovery is on Dolphins. Dolphins don't drink water. They don't drink water because it is salt water, they get there water from the fish they eat. Also Dolphins have hair. They only have hair when they are first born. Many people think Dolphins are fish, but they aren't, they are mammals. Another fact is some Dolphins are trained the find bombs or terrorist in the water, They are trained to find bombs and terrorist in the water because if a U.S ship is traveling they don't want people of bombs blow the ship up so they have dolphins find them and tell the trainer. The blowhole on top of the Dolphins heads are used to breath. https://www.dolphins.org/kids_dolphin_facts

My science discovery is on crabs. Crabs can grow up to 13 feet. Also about 850 species of crabs live in freshwater.
