Detection of energetic equivalence depends on food web architecture and estimators of energy use - Nature Communications The universality of the energetic equivalence rule has long been debated. Here, the authors show that across 183 soil invertebrate food webs, size–density and energy use varied with trophic level, ene...

A scaling thought:
We get stuck when the phenomenon lives outside the scale we can manipulate.
-Abiogenesis: too small
-Cosmology: too large
-Fusion: too nonlinear
-LLMs: too big to iterate
Maybe discovery hits limits when scale outruns tools.

Using FlyCellAtlas+experiments, we reveal how organs scale via cell size/number diffs: bigger female flight muscles from more myoblasts, larger hearts from bigger cardiomyocytes, & fat body tweaks. Allometric Framework for sex diffs in growth!

Onthophagus hecate. Representative male with a large pronotal horn with four protuberances: A) Dorsal, B) Lateral. Representative male with a small pronotal horn with two protuberances: C) Dorsal, D) Lateral. Representative female: E) Dorsal, F) Ventral. Black arrows indicate bifurcation and protuberances. White lines indicate the pronotum width representing the body size (solid line in A) and pronotal horn size (dashed lines in A and E). The black dashed line in (B) indicates the clypeus height used in this study. Females do not develop a prominent clypeus; however, we measured its height using equivalent points (F). Scale bars: 1 mm. One scale bar is used for A, C, and E, and a second scale bar for B and D, and a third for F.
