Ants might look small, but their bodies are engineered for extreme power. An average ant can lift 20 to 50 times its own body weight ,the equivalent of a human carrying a car with their bare hands. Their strength comes from simple physics: the smaller the animal, the greater the muscle force relative to its body size. Combined with their lightweight exoskeleton, ants become tiny power machines capable of moving objects far larger than themselves. A reminder that size has nothing to do with capability even in the natural world.
