Allometry is the study of how these processes scale with body size and with each other, and the impact this has on ecology and evolution.
1 Μαΐ 2005 · Consequently it is central in determining the scale of biological phenomena, including the sizes and dimensions of structures and the rates and times of activities, at levels of organization from molecules to ecosystems.
6 Απρ 2023 · Scaling offers a quantitative lens into how biological features vary compared with predictions based on physical laws. In this Review, we provide an introduction to scaling and its historical context, focusing on two fields that are strongly represented in experimental biology: physiology and biomechanics.
1 Μαΐ 2005 · Scaling relationships (where body size features as the independent variable) and power-law distributions are commonly reported in ecological systems. In this review we analyze scaling relationships related to energy acquisition and transformation and power-laws related to fluctuations in numbers.
25 Σεπ 2019 · The study of allometry and scaling has now become an exceptionally diverse field, with different investigators applying state of the art methods and concepts in evolution, developmental biology, cell biology, and genetics.
1 Οκτ 2011 · Modeling a biological system at multiple scales unavoidably leave gaps between scales due to the different methodologies and reduction in dimensions of freedom, as discussed in the examples above.
27 Ιαν 2009 · Scaling in biology is an enormous subject, with a fascinating history. After Galileo's early strides toward understanding how geometry and size affect the mechanical soundness of structures, the method of dimensional analysis emerged during the industrial revolution.
