Read the following paragraph and explain the method of development.
Both bees and ants demonstrate how insects live in large highly organized colonies. The homes of either of these insects contain separate rooms designed for special purposes whether they be to store food or raise the offspring. Both have queens that have no other task but that of laying eggs. The chief work of the drone bee, like that of the male ant, is to mate with the young queens and then to die soon after mating. From the time each bee or ant is hatched, it seems to know whether it is a worker or a queen and for which task it is responsible: hunting, maintaining order, or nursing the young.
Key:
The method of development used here is simultaneous comparison. simultaneous comparison occurs when the writer states the points of similarities together.
