In this context, the "running ants" refer to the animated dashed lines that typically surround a selection. These ants move around the edges of the selected area, indicating that it is active and ready for further actions like copying, cutting, or editing. Therefore, "selection" is the correct answer in this case.

    Control+J, copy, and alt+Control are all keyboard shortcuts commonly used in graphic design software such as Adobe Photoshop to duplicate a layer or selection. When any of these shortcuts are used, the selected layer or portion of the image is duplicated, creating an identical copy of it. This allows designers to easily replicate elements within their design without having to manually recreate them. Therefore, the correct answer is "duplicated".
