Temperature effects on mass-scaling exponents in colonial animals: a manipulative test.
Body size and temperature are fundamental drivers of ecological processes because they determine metabolic rates at the individual level. Whether these drivers act independently on individual-level metabolic rates remains uncertain. Most studies of intraspecific scaling of unitary organisms must rely on preexisting differences in size to examine its relationship with metabolic rate, thereby pot...
متن کاملForm and metabolic scaling in colonial animals.
Benthic colonial organisms exhibit a wide variation in size and shape and provide excellent model systems for testing the predictions of models that describe the scaling of metabolic rate with organism size. We tested the hypothesis that colony form will influence metabolic scaling and its derivatives by characterising metabolic and propagule production rates in three species of freshwater bryo...
متن کاملthe relationship between eq, iq and test format: a study on test fairness
the major aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between iq, eq and test format in the light of test fairness considerations. this study took this relationship into account to see if people with different eq and iq performed differently on different test formats. to this end, 90 advanced learners of english form college of ferdowsi university of mashhad were chosen. they were ask...
15 صفحه اولCritical exponents in percolation via lattice animals
We examine the percolation model by an approach involving lattice animals, divided according to their surface-area-to-volume ratio. Throughout, we work with the bond percolation model in Z. However, the results apply to the site or bond model on any infinite transitive amenable graph with inessential changes. For any given p ∈ (0, 1), two lattice animals with given size are equally likely to ar...
متن کاملBounds for Test Exponents
Suppose that R is a two-dimensional normal standard-graded domain over a finite field. We prove that there exists a uniform Frobenius test exponent b for the class of homogeneous ideals in R generated by at most n elements. This means that for every ideal I in this class we have that f b ∈ I [p ] if and only if f ∈ I . This gives in particular a finite test for the Frobenius closure. On the oth...
