It is true that a "leaf beetle" can carry more greater weight than others related to its body wt.so how much times greater wt(related to its body wt) can it carry?

Among the insect species many insects like dung roller beetles, dragonflies etc., carry goog weights with consumate eases. But ants are the real heavy weight champions which could carry more greater weights (almost nine times their body weight).

None. It takes no power to maintain that speed (on level ground, no friction). The object has kinetic energy (0.5 * m * v^2). Power was required to put it in motion and power can be recovered by decelerating it. If you do the math, the energy is 3551.86 ft-lb, equivalent to 1 horsepower for 6.458 seconds. Answer 1 neglected the fact that weight must be converted to mass by dividing by g, and energy is proportional to v^2.

I have always favored the butterfly opsed to any other insect.  however if to be a butterfly i would have to go through the evolving part i would say know.  I have stepped on many a caterpiller.  oops!  i have a tatoo of a butterfly that used to be a spider.  I callit my spiderfly.  my fiance calls me his iron butterfly.  cause i am strong and yet gental.

Nobody really knows. One explanation is that oxygen levels in the atmosphere were higher in the past for reasons we don't understand. That is supported to some degree by isotope ratios in rocks. With higher oxygen levels insects could grow larger without running into problems of gas diffusion.\n\nThe other hypothesis is that the greenhouse world that existed when the giant insects did was incredibly productive and allowed for extravagant solutions that would  not be energetically feasible today. For example insects today can achieve limited active respiration by pumping their abdomens  but it is amazingly wasteful of energy. However in world with limitless food that may not have been limiting. That theory is supported to some degree by the fact that the giant insect fossils only turn up in the equivalent of rainforest locales, IOW in the most productive areas of the planet.\n\nIt is worth noting that the giant insects seem to have come and gone at least twice. They were common in the Carboniferous and then died out and re-emerged around the Silurian. That suggests that whatever was limiting them was somehow recurring.

It depends on their velocities.  If the velocities are equal then the cart with more mass (the bag filled one) has a greater momentum and therefore would be "harder" to stop.  It would take more energy to bring it to a stop.\n\nObjects in motion tend to stay in motion (and the part everyone forgets) unless they are acted upon by another force.\n\nDo a real world test.  Stand 10 meters downhill from someone holding an empty shopping cart.  When it is released it will roll to you and you should be able to stop it relatively easily.  Next fill one with extra weight and have it roll down to you, you'll probably have to brace yourself or lean into stopping the cart, otherwise it may run you over.  It has more energy and momentum than the other cart.

Here's an answer to that question from an entomologist.

Many beetles survive freezing...even ones as common as the Ladybird...(Ladybug)\nThe temperature range you give sounds a bit far-fetched, though.

Depends on what is being transported, where it is in the body,  what organism it is... there is no universal answer.

Sled B is faster\nKE = m*v^2\n\nSince both have same KE. so the analysis goes with the mass, since sled B is lighter the velocity is of higher value.

Well, you already have the answer several times (and once with kg and lb mixed up). But, you can ask google these questions and it will answer them directly (ie. won't search the web, will just tell you). See the link below.

Theres loads of types of beetles so because they're different sizes and shapes!!They weigh different ha now what do you know!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Nope.  As the proportions of the hummingbird gets bigger their weight, which is proportional to volume, also gets bigger.  Strength on the other hand is known to be roughly proportional to the cross section of muscle for any particular limb.  The same calculations are used for weight lifting events, and tell us if a 200 lb athlete did a better lift than a 180 lber.  I\n\nIn addition to all that, the bones also do not increase in nearly as much volume proportionatly as the meat.  The hummingbird would snap its bones trying to flap them that fast, but it probably wouldn't even be able to fly at all.  Because of all these limits on our structures, any animal that big begins taking on the weightlifter build.  For birds, the limit is that of the condor and it glides everywhere it goes.  The albatross is so fat at 30 lbs it already has trouble taking off and landing, so much so that its nickname is the goony bird.  30 lbs :that's the upper limit for birds on Earth right now.   \n\nThe teratorn is the largest bird that's ever been found at 160 - 170 lbs with a 25 foot wingspan and 11 feet from beak to tail, and it's EXTINCT.  We've only found the bones of one located in Argentina.  It seems hard to believe that a bird of that size would even be able to get off the ground, but it all the bones for flight so it must have.  This teratorn was a gliding bird of prey that closely resembled the eagle.  Animals like this and the Ultrasaur show us how what we perceive to be gravity is capable of changing... but that's for another question.

When they say muscle weighs more than fat, they are referring to its density. Muscle is denser, and therefore it takes less of it to reach the same weight as an amount of fat

My guess is that you've found a golden torotise beetle (Charidotella sp.)\nhttp://bugguide.net/node/view/8827/bgpage\n\nThey are related to ladybugs but not really a part of that group. Dead beetles quickly lose the gold.

What do you mean by largest? Do you mean biggest weight or biggest length?\n\n**The heaviest snake in the world is the anaconda. They can weigh more then 500 pounds!\n\n**The longest snake in the world is the python. They can get to be about 33 feet!

Yes, absolutely.\nYour question if a person can throw a ball faster than another person (we are considering the same size and mass of ball, same trajectory and in the same local on earth) then will this person will be able to throw a further distance vs another person. Absolutely.\n\nThis person P(a) throws with a greater force N(a) equates to a longer distance for a given mass than person P(b) of force N(b). Where N(a) > N(b).\n1N = 1Kg * m / s^2  where mass = 1Kg, m = meter\nTherefore distance m = 1N * (s^2) / (1Kg) is greater for a given force from Person(a) vs Person(b).
