Morphometrics

Morphometrics is the study of shapes and sizes of organisms or their parts, using statistical methods to analyze their forms. This field helps scientists understand biological variations, evolutionary relationships, and functional adaptations among species. By measuring features like length, width, and volume, researchers can compare different species or populations, revealing insights about their development, ecology, and evolution. Morphometrics combines biology, mathematics, and computer tools to provide a clearer picture of the intricate relationships between form and function in living organisms.
