Effects of fat and exoskeletal mass on the mass scaling of metabolism in Carabidae beetles

Effects of fat and exoskeletal mass on the mass scaling of metabolism in Carabidae beetles

The rate at which organisms metabolize resources and consume oxygen is tightly linked to body mass. Typically, there is a sub-linear allometric relationship between metabolic rates and body mass (mass-scaling exponent b
