By studying a particular species .
It’s the photic zone!!!! I learned this last year
This is a process called transcription and translation.
Information to synthesize a particular protein is found in DNA in the cell nucleus. This information is copied (transcribed) onto messenger RNA or mRNA in short. The copying process is called transcription.
mRNA then leaves the nucleus and enters the cytoplasm where it attaches to a ribosome. Transfer RNA or tRNA then begins to read (translate) the information on the attached mRNA. This is the process of translation.
tRNA then fetches amino acids that correspond to this information and brings them to the ribosome where they are linked together into a chain. This chain of amino acids is the primary structure of the protein.
The horse and mouse are endotherms among them rat will have high mass-specific metabolic rate.
The shark and fish are endotherms among them fish will have high mass-specific metabolic rate.
Explanation:
The endotherm (heat requires in them to maintain internal temperature of the body) organism have high metabolic rates to maintain homeostasis, this requires the large amount of energy. Smaller animals have the greater surface area to volume ratio, hence more heat loss and higher metabolism. In larger animals body volume increases, surface area increase is also very slow, hence less heat loss and lower Metabolic rate. Smaller animals exchange oxygen to tissues at a high rate.
Same goes with ectotherms the larger the animal the smaller is the metabolic rate. During winters their activity slows down as they cannot adjust with the temperature of the surrounding.
However metabolic rates of ectotherm and endotherm cannot be compared.
