An ant can carry up to 50 times it's body weight
Show answer & explanation
Correct answer: B
Explanation
The correct answer is option 2 i.e. times its.
The possessive form "its" (without an apostrophe) is used to show ownership, like "her" or "his."
In the sentence, "its body weight" means "the body weight of the ant."
Using "it's" with an apostrophe would mean "it is" or "it has," which doesn’t fit the context. Therefore, "times its" is the correct choice.
