Whole-body heat production is a consequence of several biochemical events. Specific sites of heat production have been isolated, some being greater contributors to whole-body oxygen consumption than others. Tissues of the splanchnic bed (the gastrointestinal tract and liver) make up only 4 4 % of whole-body mass, but account for 40% of total ATP utilization. Skeletal muscle accounts for a much ...

let $g$ be a graph and let $m_{ij}(g)$, $i,jge 1$, be the number of edges $uv$ of $g$ such that ${d_v(g), d_u(g)} = {i,j}$. the {em $m$-polynomial} of $g$ is introduced with $displaystyle{m(g;x,y) = sum_{ile j} m_{ij}(g)x^iy^j}$. it is shown that degree-based topological indices can be routinely computed from the polynomial, thus reducing the problem of their determination in each particular ca...

topological indices are numerical parameters of a graph which characterize its topology. inthis paper the pi, szeged and zagreb group indices of the tetrameric 1,3–adamantane arecomputed.

in theoretical chemistry, molecular structure descriptors are used to compute properties of chemical compounds. among them wiener, szeged and detour indices play significant roles in anticipating chemical phenomena. in the present paper, we study these topological indices with respect to their difference number.
