The formula given in the textbook for Q10 is RT/R(T-10), where R = metabolic rate and T temperature. An alternate form of that formula is Q10 = (R₂ /R₁)10(T₂-T₁). Choose the correct formula and answer each the following questions about resting metabolic rates in ectothermic animals: A. If the resting metabolic rate is 1 J/min at 10°C and 2.2 J/min at 20°C, then what is the Q10? B. If the resting metabolic rate is 3 J/min at 5°C and 67 J/min at 37°C, then what is the Q10? C. If the resting metabolic rate is 3 J/min at 5°C, 23 J/min at 23°C, and 67 J/min at 37°C, then what are the Qios?

Question

The formula given in the textbook for Q10 is RT/R(T-10), where R = metabolic rate and T =
temperature. An alternate form of that formula is Q10 = (R₂/R₁) 10/T₂-T₁). Choose the correct
formula and answer each the following questions about resting metabolic rates in ectothermic
animals:
A. If the resting metabolic rate is 1 J/min at 10°C and 2.2 J/min at 20°C, then what is the Q10?
B. If the resting metabolic rate is 3 J/min at 5°C and 67 J/min at 37°C, then what is the Q10?
C. If the resting metabolic rate is 3 J/min at 5°C, 23 J/min at 23°C, and 67 J/min at 37°C, then
what are the Q10s?
