ex1120

Data are the isotopic composition of structural bone carbonate
 (\(X\)) and the isotopic composition of the coexisting calcite
 cements (\(Y\)) in 18 bone samples from a specimen of the dinosaur
 Tyrannosaurus rex. Evidence that the mean of \(Y\) is positively
 associated with \(X\) was used in an argument that the metabolic
 rate of this dinosaur resembled warm-blooded more than cold-blooded
 animals.
