能量代谢-“生命之火”-是动物获取能量、将能量转化为有用功能以及从身体中消耗能量的过程的总和。获取和分配过程主要将能量作为一个量来处理,但能量是在一段时间内被吸收或消耗的;因此,将能量预算概念化的最相关方法是使用速率函数。最近的大量研究已经检查了个体之间的代谢和行为特征的共变。从这一系列工作中得出的一个普遍结论是,没有单一的因果机制驱动这些关系,但影响的方向是动态的,并在不同的背景和环境中发生变化。然而,显着的能量差异之间的恒温动物和外温动物是一个未开发的基础,以实现进一步了解这种关系。
Energy metabolism - the "fire of life" - is the sum of the processes by which animals acquire energy, channel energy into useful functions, and dissipate energy from their bodies. Acquisition and allocation processes deal with energy mainly as a quantity, but energy is absorbed or expended over a period of time; therefore, the most relevant way to conceptualize energy budgets is with the use of rate functions. A large number of recent studies have examined co-variation in metabolic and behavioral traits among individuals. A general finding stemming from this body of work is that there is no single cause-and-effect mechanism driving these relationships, but that the direction of the effects is dynamic and shifts in different contexts and environments. However, the remarkable energetic differences between endotherms and ectotherms are an unexploited basis for achieving a further understanding of such relationships.
