| Distribution Of Creatures Great And Small Can Be Predicted Mathematically (Science Daily) |
| In studying how animals change size as they evolve, biologists have unearthed several interesting patterns. For instance, most species are small, but the largest members of a taxonomic group -- such as the great white shark, the Komodo dragon, or the African elephant -- are often thousands or millions of times bigger than the typical species. Now for the first time researchers explain these ... |
