Gamora

## Powers and Abilities

### Powers

**Artificially Enhanced Physiology:**Gamora was enhanced at low levels of superhuman strength, durability, endurance and reflexes, and healing factor. Gamora received treatments from Thanos that enhanced her physiology. While engaging the US Military, it was mentioned that the armed forces were under the impression that she was no stronger than Spider-Man. However, her skill combined with her strength made them estimate her to be close to as dangerous as Iron Man.[79]

* ***Enhanced Strength:*** Gamora possesses superhuman strength, making her considerably stronger than the finest human athlete.
* ***Enhanced Speed:*** Gamora is capable of running and moving at speeds much greater than even the finest human athlete.
* ***Enhanced Stamina:*** Gamora's musculature generates less fatigue toxins during physical activity than the musculature of a human being. Her respiratory system is vastly superior to that of most humanoid races.[8]Gamora can physically exert herself at peak capacity for several hours before fatigue begins to impair her.
* ***Enhanced Agility:*** Gamora's agility, balance, and bodily coordination are enhanced to levels that are beyond the natural physical limits of even the finest human athlete.
* ***Enhanced Reflexes:*** Gamora's reaction time is similarly enhanced, enabling her to react at a level that is beyond the natural physical limits of the finest human athlete.[8]
* ***Enhanced Durability:*** Gamora's bodily tissues are much harder and more resistant to injury than those of a human. Her body is also specially adapted to withstand the physiologically debilitating effects of moving and running at high rates of speed without sustaining injury. Her skeleton was constructed of a lightweight yet nearly indestructible alloy, enabling her to survive falls that would eventually kill a normal human.[8]
* ***Regenerative Healing Factor:*** Gamora possesses a regenerative healing factor,[37] allowing her to regenerate from what would normally be considered life-threatening wounds in a matter of moments.

She was stated to have a "Village/City" threat level by the Nova Corps, but that she had a potential Universal one when in possession of the Time Gem.[80]
