Factores orgánicos de la capacidad física en la edad infantil: alometría y fractalidad en la fundamentación fisiológica de la capacidad física / Organic factors of physical capacity in childhood: allometry and fractality in the physiological basis of physical capacity

ABSTRACT

From a biological point of view, the physical capacity may be explained to some extent in terms of its organic elements. In the childhood, when the organism has not grow completely mature, the lower physical capacity can be understand as emerged from the low dimension of the different functional areas compared to that of the adult. Nevertheless, this "fractal" conception of the organic factors of the physical capacities needs to be changed for an "alometric" scheme, since the biological systems are not "fractal" but "alometric" this signifying that summoning up all of them, it cannot be obtained a proportional sum formed by their all. Wrapping all of that up, it can be said that the consideration of the organic elements related with the physical capacity should be done as an integration that realizes the way in which they interact to determine the capacity of the organism to move.
