title: [Changes in the surface area and shape of growing organisms].
abstract: Equations describing the changes in body surface area of rats and humans during ontogenesis are proposed. A function of difference between the body surface and the surface of sphere of similar weight and density was chosen in order to characterize the body plan formation. Equations describing these processes in rats and humans are proposed.
