Answer Details
When the original king and queen of termites die, they are usually replaced by adult reproductives from the same colony. These replacement reproductive termites are commonly referred to as "secondary reproductives." These secondary reproductives are typically young adult termites that have not yet developed the full reproductive capabilities of the primary king and queen. However, under certain circumstances, other options such as adopting a king and queen from another colony or feeding adult workers to breed may also occur, depending on the species of termite and the specific conditions of the colony.
