Solution

The correct option is D A, B, C
Ants use sense of smell to find food, to find their nest and to communicate with other ants.
When ants go in search of food, they leave behind a trail of special chemicals called pheromones.
Pheromones are chemicals with a distinct smell. Other ants follow the pheromones and reach the food source, which is usually sweet and sugary.
