Answer:

The correct option is D. 18 year old male

Explanation:

The epiphyseal plate can be described as a disc of cartilage that is required for the growth of bones. The epiphyseal plates get fused in females at a very early age, most probably between the ages of 13 to 15. In males, the epiphyseal plates fuse a litter later at about 15 to 18 years.

Hence, the presence of epiphyseal plates in the femur would prove that it was present in an 18-year-old male.

All the other options would be false because they won't contain an epiphyseal plate.

Luden [163]

Answer:

The scaling exponent will be 0.75

Explanation:

According to a famous article by Max Kleiber*, the scaling of the metabolic rate or energy consumption for mammals Pmetab (measured in kcal/day) with the body mass Mb (measured in kilograms) is  P metab = 70 Mb^0.75 .

What is the scaling exponent (the quantity x in a scaling law A = cMbx) for the specific metabolic rate as a function of the animal’s body mass?

he scaling of the metabolic rate or energy consumption for mammals P=kcal/day

Mb=body mass in kilograms

Comparing

P metab = 70 Mb^0.75 .

with A = cMb^x

the scaling exponent will be 0.75

metabolic rate is the energy(in kilojoule) consumed at rest. it accounts for the highest amount of energy a body consumes daily
