Primes

• Allometry and Scaling Law
  • These deviations from linearity are not random but governed by underlying structural constraints, as Gould (1966) reviewed across ontogeny and phylogeny.

    This sourceClassic synthesis documenting how predictable deviations from linear proportionality reflect underlying developmental and evolutionary constraints across taxa. [Note: prime gives page range 587–638; correct end page is 640.]

Verification

Does it exist? Confirmed. This work's DOI resolves to a registered record, which fixes its identity. That is all it fixes.

Does it back the claim? Not recorded. The single citation of this work carries no recorded support check.

Support is checked per citation rather than per work — the same source can be cited soundly in one article and wrongly in another. Per-citation recording began recently, so a citation with no recorded check is a gap in the record rather than evidence it went unchecked.
