Fig. 10. Log-log plots of total work (A) and muscle-mass-specific work (B) from the start of mouth opening until maximum gape versus cranial length, as calculated using the model presented in this paper. Note that, while total work increases significantly with increasing cranial size (A), the muscle-mass-specific work output decreases significantly with increasing cranial size (B).
