Ants have the power of super strength.
Ants are estimated to be able to lift 10 to 50 times their own body weight. (Arizona State University School of Life Sciences Ask A Biologist) To put this into human perspective a 95 pound human woman could lift up from 950 to 4,750 if it had the strength of an ant.
” Because ants are so small, their muscles have a greater cross-sectional area (they are thicker) relative to their body size than in larger animals. This means they can produce more force pound-for-pound.” (Arizona State University School of Life Sciences Ask A Biologist)
Although ants are able to lift that much their bodies are capable of withstanding a lot weight if they need too. Ants can withstand 3000 times their body weight before breaking. (Arizona State University School of Life Sciences Ask A Biologist)
In conclusion, Ants are a pound for pound power house, being able to lift 10 to 50 times their body weight and to be able to hold a force up to 3000 times as heavy as itself without breaking.

There are differences in how you do quotes. If someone has a long title just give the name, then the quote. Then the title: Smith is the assistant deputy chief scientist at blah blah.
OK on the lead. I think most people know ants are strong. Their ability to withstand pressure is kind of new to me. Maybe that would get attention.
