How strong are spiders?

Answer 1

They are real strong - just ask Spider-man!!!

Answer 2

Spiders for their size are extremely strong. However, having the "proportionate strenght of a spider" like spiderman would have you immobile. A six foot tall spider would not even have the strength to move!

Answer 3

Like anything else, some are stronger than others - as a general rule, the ones that depend on the web and their venom to restrain and subdue prey are physically rather weak for their size. Others, such as wolf spiders, tarantulas and such that physically overpower their prey, can be pretty strong for their size. It's hard to quantify this, or even make relative comparisons, because there's so much variation within the group.

Answer 4

All spiders are carnivorous. Scientists often divide spiders into two types: web spiders and ground spiders. Web spiders produce webs to capture prey, while ground spiders hunt prey directly without using a web. Almost all spiders use poison glands to kill or paralyze their prey or to defend themselves.
Most spider bites are not dangerous to humans. Of the 40,000 species of spiders, only about 30 species produce bites that may cause illness.

Answer 5

for the guy saying a human with spider powers wouldn't be able to move, consider that spider's have no muscle in their legs. all eight legs move by hydraulic pressure of blood similar to human white blood cells moving through them. if spider man was that far mutated he wouldn't even be able to breathe as a spider's circulatory and respiratory systems are one and the same. answer is real strong. strong enough to kill larger animals in some species.

Answer 6

Relatively weaker than ants, but they have a good bite that injects poison (for some spiders).... so.... depending on what strengths you will be looking for.

Answer 7

Strong enough to decapitate a fly.

Answer 8

well they have me running in the opposite direction so I would say quite strong!

Answer 9
