Discussion
- Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} only
- In view of low somatic maintenance, pseudodata k_J = 0.002 1/d is replaced by pseudodata k = 0.3
- mod_2: males have equal state variables at b, compared to females
Facts
- temperature effects sex of neonate: below 31 C neonates are male, above 32 C they are female (Ref: Wiki)
