Mass-Specific Metabolic Rate Influences Sperm Performance through Energy Production in Mammals

Mass-specific metabolic rate, the rate at which organisms consume energy per gram of body weight, is negatively associated with body size in metazoans. As a consequence, small species have higher cellular metabolic rates and are able to process resources at a faster rate than large species. Since ma...
