3. Three basic fluxes 4.3.1 assimilation : substrate  reserve + products linked to surface area dissipation : reserve  products somatic maintenance: linked to surface area & structural volume maturity maintenance: linked to maturity maturation or reproduction overheads growth : reserve  structure + products Product formation = A  assimilation + B  dissipation + C  growth Examples: heat, CO 2, H 2 O, O 2, NH 3 Indirect calorimetry: heat = D  O 2 -flux + E  CO 2 -flux + F  NH 3 -flux

Synthesizing units 3.7b Generalized enzymes that process generalized substrates and follow classic enzyme kinetics E + S  ES  EP  E + P with two modifications: back flux is negligibly small E + S  ES  EP  E + P specification of transformation is on the basis of arrival fluxes of substrates rather than concentrations In spatially homogeneous environments: arrival fluxes  concentrations

15. Inter-species body size scaling parameter values tend to co-vary across species parameters are either intensive or extensive ratios of extensive parameters are intensive maximum body length is allocation fraction to growth + maint. (intensive) volume-specific maintenance power (intensive) surface area-specific assimilation power (extensive) conclusion : write physiological property as function of parameters (including maximum body weight) evaluate this property as function of max body weight Kooijman 1986 Energy budgets can explain body size scaling relations J. Theor. Biol. 121: 269-282

16. Body weight Body weight has contributions from structure and reserve If reserve allocated to reproduction hardly contributes:
