Fig. 2. Resting metabolic rate (RMR) as a function of body mass
(Mb) in controls (filled symbols) and diet-restricted
nestlings (open symbols) of European shags. The axes are log-scaled, and
linear regression lines are shown for each treatment group [log RMR
controls=0.87(±0.11)xlog
Mb1.62(±0.28), r=0.88; log RMR
diet-restricted=0.66(±0.37)xlog
Mb1.27(±0.95), r=0.49].
