Question

how many kilograms can a single ant carry? Write each value in scientific notation (There are 10 to the 6 power in a kilogram)

Answer 1

Answer:

ants can lift up to 10, 100, no, 1000 times their own weight right up over their heads.  real research puts the number anywhere from 20 to 100 times, depending on the species of ant.

Answer 2

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Ants weight from 1 to 5 mg and can lift from 10 to 50 times their weight, this means a single ant can lift from 10 to 250 mg, now if we express it in scientific notation

1 kg is 10^6 mg

10 mg = 10^-5 kg

250 mg = 2.5 * 10^-4 kg
