Interspecific allometric scaling coefficients and model fit for the relationship between body mass and aerobic capacity in male and female primates.
| Test | Hematocrit | RBC counts |
|---|---|---|
| λ = 0.161 | λ = 0.912 | |
| Regressed on body mass in males | b̂ = −0.006 | b̂ = −0.056 |
| P = 0.029 | P = 0.002 | |
| λ = 0.707 | λ = 0.963 | |
| Regressed on body mass in females | b̂ = −0.007 | b̂ = −0.058 |
| P = 0.072 | P = 0.007 |
