Life’s Energy and Information: Contrasting Evolution of Volume- versus Surface-Specific Rates of Energy Consumption 2020-09-13 .txt text/plain 13174 751 54 With the probability of point mutation affecting a given nucleotide pair of about ν = 10 −10 per cell division [34] and division frequency of the order of τ −1 = q/K, where q = 1 W kg −1 is the universal mass-specific metabolic rate and K = 4 × 10 6 J kg −1 is the energy content of living matter [28] , the genetic information of life would have melted completely in about τ/ν ≈ one billion years. A more up-to-date analysis of Ikeda [63] controlling for the physiological state in Protozoa indicates a decline in mass-specific metabolic rate with growing body size that is not distinguishable from what is observed in the groups of larger organisms (Figure 2 , thin red line). ./cache/cord-034852-adhq1zt9.txt ./txt/cord-034852-adhq1zt9.txt
