(Eckert 16-8)

MR = aMbb = 0.75(slope)logMR = loga + b(logM)

Allometry

Scaling

Power Functions:

How do morphology and metabolism change with body mass?

MR = aMb

Metabolicrate

Y-intercept (of log-log plot)

Body mass

Scaling exponent

logMR = loga + b(logM)

Can look at mass-specific rates by dividing through by M

Take log of both sides

(Linearizes)

Scaling Effects

Allometry - changes in body proportions as animalsget larger (mouse vs. elephant)

Metabolic Rate - mass-specific metabolic ratedecreases with increasing body mass

-What is the correct dose?

-Importance of Scaling!

Metabolism

-Chemical reactions in the body-Temperature-dependent rates-Not 100% efficient, energy lost as heat

(not ‘lost’ if used to maintain Tb)

1. Anabolic-creation, assembly, repair, growth

(positive nitrogen balance)

2. Catabolic-energy release from complex molecules

(carbos, fats, proteins)-energy storage in phosphate bonds (ATP) and

metabolic intermediates (glucose, lactate)

Chemical Energy

-Larger animals invest proportionally less in reproduction

-Sperm is cheap

-Direct and indirect costs

Metabolic Rate

-measurable conversion of chemical energy into heat

-used to understand:-energy budgets-dietary needs-body size implications-habitat effects-costs of various activities-mode of locomotion-cost of reproduction

Much more difficult for water breathing animals to maintain body temperatures above ambient because rate of heat transfer is greater than rate of O2 transferin water (high specific heat)

Amblyrhynchus cristatus

Fish Example:

-Differences in vascular organization

-Tuna with warm, aerobic musclemedially

-Countercurrentblood flow (don’t lose heat to cold water across gills)

Metabolic Rates

-Basal Metabolic Rate, BMR-minimal environmental and physiological stress(appropriate ambient temperature,

post-digestive, resting etc.)

-Standard Metabolic Rate, SMR-similar to BMR, but at a given Tb

-Field Metabolic Rate, FMR-average metabolic rate of animal in natural setting-hard to measure

Metabolic Rates

Basal Metabolic Rate, BMR-important components:

1. Membrane form and functionmaintenance of electrochemical gradients-proton pumps in mitochondrial membranes-Na/K-ATPase pumps in plasma membrane

2. Protein synthesis

3. ATP formation

Metabolic heat production(chemical energy ‘lost’ as heat during metabolism)

Pough et al., 2001

-Endotherms-surface area to volume ratio -Larger ectotherms can be heterothermic

- leatherback (Dermochelys coriacea)- pythons (female brooding clutch)- tuna and increased core temperature
