| How much could a human-sized ant lift? |
| << < (2/4) > >> |
| PhantOS:
the only reason why ants are able to lift up 100x their weight is because they are tiny forgets and because they weigh less so the cells in their muscles have less mass to hold together. if they were human size they'd probably be able to lift like 3x their weight. the larger you are as a species the harder it is for you to hold your own weight. this is because molecules and the forces between them can't be scaled with the size of animals |

thank you science side of tumblr pretty sure the square root law (whatever that is) has something to do with it it'd also end up much more fragile |
