How Can Ants Carry 50x Their Own Weight?

According to the type of ant and estimates provided by different agencies, ants can carry anywhere between 10 and 50 times their own body weight. This is an amazing fact because ants are so tiny. However, it is that small size that actually helps them carry so much. Ants have larger cross-sectional areas in their muscles, which means their muscles are thicker than other animals so they can produce more force. The entire body of an ant is meant to carry more force, as well. According to different studies, some parts of their bodies can experience force more than 3,000 times their own body weight and survive it.
