Manfaat Sarang Rayap Bagi Ekosistem Dan Ilmu Pengetahuan
Main Article Content
Abstract
The purpose of this research was to figure the benefits of research on termite nests for ecosystems and science. The method used in this study was a qualitative method with a literature review and empirical approach. Based on the results, the termite nest contains a biogenic product, namely C-organic produced by Schedorhinotheres spp. As a source of food and energy for microorganisms, termite nests also contain Actinomycetes containing bioactive compounds. B. germanus species nest structure and architecture in its nest-building strategy reduces the risk of predation. The architecture of the mound has a large effect on the temperature of the nest. Termite nests are also useful as a biomimicry approach to make various architecture inspiration, the most famous example is the Eastgate Center in Harare, in Zimbabwe.
