Effects of shape variations on the energy metabolism of the sand cricket Gryllus firmus: a geometric morphometric analysis
Respiration and energy metabolism are key processes in animals, which are severely constrained by the design of physical structures, such as respiratory structures. Insects have very particular respiratory systems, based on gas diffusion across tracheae. Since the efficiency of the tracheal respirat...
