C Correct answer
Explanation

Ants have the highest brain-to-body mass ratio of any animal. Their brains constitute approximately 14-15% of their body mass, which is exceptional when compared to other animals. While humans have large absolute brain sizes, the relative brain size in ants is remarkable for their scale. This high ratio supports their complex social behaviors, navigation abilities, and communication within colonies.
