C Correct answer
Explanation

In terms of relative strength, ants are known as the champion weight lifters of the animal kingdom, capable of carrying objects up to 50 times their own body weight.

AI explanation

The hippopotamus is often cited as a champion 'weight lifter' among animals because of the sheer power in its jaw and body relative to its bulk — it can lift and toss enormous loads with its head and mouth. Elephants and yaks are strong in absolute terms too, but this particular trivia distinction is traditionally given to the hippo, while the ant's strength (often cited elsewhere) is about relative-to-bodyweight lifting, a different category.
