Mass-specific metabolic rate predicts lifespan in vertebrates.
“both telomere shortening rate and mass-specific metabolic rate are similarly related to lifespan and that both strongly predict differences in lifespan”

Mass-specific metabolic rate is associated with telomere shortening rate in vertebrates.
“Results show that telomere shortening rate increases linearly with mass-specific metabolic rate”
