Question
Through studies on plankton, Allen et al. showed that manipulating this variable can cause exponentially higher rates of evolutionary change. A factor that corrects for this variable is added to the West–Brown–Enquist model in the metabolic theory of ecology. This variable affects aromatase accumulation to impact the outcome of a “sensitive” period in one class’s development. David Atkinson built on Bergmann’s rule to describe how organisms’ (*) size relates to this variable. This variable increases the number of niches in an ecosystem by increasing primary productivity. Sex determination in most reptiles is driven by this variable, which decreases along with metabolic rate and activity during hibernation. For 10 points, name this variable, which organisms can regulate by sunning or resting in shade. ■END■
