Fig. 5. Biomechanical results of different ontogenetic stages (see Fig. 2B), based on representative stages of growth from individuals in the total data set (Fig. 4). A, Double logarithmic plot of flexural stiffness (EI) against axial second moment of area (I). B, Double logarithmic plot of structural Young’s modulus (Estr) against axial second moment of area (I).
