Discussion
- Males are assumed to differ from females by {p_Am} and E_Hp only
- In view of low somatic maintenance, pseudodata k_J = 0.002 1/d is replaced by pseudodata k = 0.3
- mod_1: males have equal state variables at b, compared to females; tL data revised due to error in digitizing
Facts
- Sex is determined by genetics (Ref: Wiki)
