派迪恩说：“它们的基础新陈代谢率一定很高才能长那么快。”
Says Padian: "They must have had a high basal metabolic rate to grow that fast."
这对于地外生命学来说意义重大。因为生命建立在碳的基础上，而由碳和氢构成的甲烷是新陈代谢的副产品。
That has big implications for extraterrestrial biology, since life is based on carbon, and methane - which is made up of carbon and hydrogen - is a byproduct of metabolism.
但黑熊的新陈代谢率却甚至直降到了储能区以下，平均仅为夏天基础代谢率的25%。
But the bears' metabolisms plunged down to even more energy-saving zones, averaging only 25 percent of the basic summer rate.
加深了与我们的人均期望寿命相匹配的健康期望寿命增加的一个重要组成部分的新陈代谢信号基础的进一步了解。
Increasing our understanding of the fundamentals of metabolic signalling is an important part of working towards an increase in health span to match our increasing life spans.
这为能源使用提供了比大多数灵长类动物新陈代谢产生的基础代谢率研究详细得多的真实写照。
This provided a true-to-life snapshot of energy use, far more detailed than at-rest metabolic rates produced by most primate metabolism studies.
