Animal Energetics - Tertiary Level Biology - Alan E Brafield , Michael J Llewellyn

This book describes how energy is measured, how it is allocated to carry out the necessary physiological functions in the animal, and how it is transferred through populations and ecosystems. Examples are chosen from a range of animals, with care being taken to avoid excessive use of only mammalian examples. Written principally for students of zoology who have an understanding of the basic principles of biology, the book is complete with chapter-end summaries and a substantial bibliography.
