Shark Data Reveals Animals Grow Geometrically

Research on over 50 shark species shows they follow a two-thirds scaling law in surface area and volume, suggesting fundamental constraints on evolution related to heat exchange, metabolism, or development. This finding supports the idea that biological forms may be governed by geometric principles, with potential implications for understanding evolution and practical applications in medicine and veterinary science.
