Intraspecific allometry of standard metabolic rate in green iguanas, Iguana iguana

open access: yesComparative Biochemistry and Physiology Part A: Molecular & Integrative Physiology, 2003
To study the allometric relationship between standard metabolic rate and body mass (mass range 16-3627 g) in green iguanas, Iguana iguana (n=32), we measured rates of oxygen consumption (V(O(2))) at 30 degrees C during scotophase. The relationship could be described as: V(O(2))(ml h(-1))=0.478W(0.734). The resulting mass exponent was similar to the 3/4
