[QUOTE]Originally posted by glassman: [QB] before people start saying this is crazy? there have been a lot of studies conducted on migration/direction finding neurochemicals in animals all the way down to the amoeba like animals... they DO have the ability to sequester iron into neurotransmission systems...(even single-celled oraganism have been shown to have this ability) ant and termites are hymenoptera, same family a bees and wasps: [b]Comparative magnetic measurements of migratory ant and its only termite prey D. M. S. EsquivelCorresponding Author Contact Information, E-mail The Corresponding Author, a, E. Wajnberga, G. R. Cernicchiaroa and O. C. Alvesb Abstract Termites and ants are social insects living organized in nests in castes. Behavioral studies with the migratory ant Pachycondyla marginata have shown that it conducts well-organized predatory raids toward nests of its only prey, the termite Neocapritermes opacus. The magnetic materials in these two insects were studied using a SQUID magnetometer for two orientations. The Jr/Js and Jr/χ0, ratios were calculated from the two insects hysteresis curves. These ratios are in the range of magnetite pseudo-single or multi-domain particle values. The magnetic material are distinguishable by Hc values (30 Oe for ants and 100 Oe for termites) and by the magnetization magnitude, which is about two magnitude orders higher in the termite than in migratory ant. The Pachycondyla marginata SQUID results show an anisotropy in the magnetic material arrangement while for Neocapritermes opacus termite it is revealed by FMR spectra.
