enzymatic basis of high metabolic rates in calling frogs

Oxygen consumption by male spring peepers (Hyla crucifer) increased linearly with calling rate, reaching peak values of 1.5−1.7 ml O<sub>2</sub>/(g⋅h) at the highest calling rates. The intercept of the regression line describing the relationship between metabolism and calling rate does n...
