The constancy of the activation energy of metabolism (E) for all living organisms is one of the most impressive, though controversial, statements of the modern metabolic theory of evolution. According to WBE-theory suggested by West, Brown, and Enquist, E should be in the range from -0.6 to -0.7 eV. However, there are many examples of significant deviations of E from the predictions of the theory. Now we have conducted a study of this value using rats in different types of pharmacological hypothermia 1. Short-term (for several hours) hypothermia induced by
