Abstract
Equations describing growth and respiration rate of animals during postembryonic development have been derived on the basis of thermodynamics of linear irreversible processes. The conditions for equation application are specified as well as the conditions when growth equation can be reduced to the von Bertalanffy equation and when the relationship between the mass-specific rate of oxygen consumption and body weight becomes an allometric relationship.
