Really interesting find...
On the tiny scale of these organisms, it seems the forces that matter are clearly different, because the mass scales down faster than the surface area. Forces proportional to mass (gravity) fall off quicker than others (air resistance, electrostatic charge).
- stubish 1y agoYes, I was thinking that this couldn't possibly work for human scale stuff like leaches, with electrostatic forces completely unnoticeable a meter away and unable to budge the larger mass in any case.
