    The test is comprehensive and covers—in equal proportions—molecular biology, organismal biology, and ecology and evolution. [7] This exam, like all the GRE subject tests, is paper-based, as opposed to the GRE general test which is usually computer-based. It contains 194 questions, which are to be answered within 2 hours and 50 minutes.

    The theory was developed in the 1950s [4] and is used to answer questions about topics such as organism size, age of maturation, number of offspring, life span, and many others. [5] In order to study these topics, life history strategies must be identified, and then models are constructed to study their effects.

    Leigh found three different patterns, all of which pointed to the growth rate of H. erectus either matching or exceeding H. erectus. [6] He makes the case that this finding had wide application and relevance to the overall study of human evolution. It is pertinent specifically to the connections between energy expenditure and brain development.
