Allometric exponent and randomness

An allometric height–mass exponent γ gives an approximative power-law relation 〈 M 〉∝ H ^γ between the average mass 〈 M 〉 and the height H for a sample of individuals. The individuals in the present study are humans but could be any biological organism. The sampling can be for a specific age of the...
