from article Allometry
Allometric lines for the mass of some organs across mammal species. (These are best-fit lines: individual species may lie above or below them.) Note that the skeleton is disproportionately heavy in large species (positive allometry), whereas the…

from article Allometry
Three different types of allometry. Each curve shows the growth allometry of organ size in a different species. The adults of each species show static intraspecific allometry. The circles indicate a particular stage of the life history (for example,…
