We compare the implications of determinate vs. indeterminate growth of a parthenogenetic iteroparous ectotherm at constant food density in the context of the dynamic energy budget theory, which specifies the tight links between life history traits, such as feeding, aging, growth and reproduction. We

Beside the concept of material inputs and outputs of components of the representation of biological systems given to us by Rosen, the concept of energy is incorporated. The interaction of material and energy is represented by a cartesian product; and separate material and energetical mappings are co
## _A We consider a dynamical system containing a large number of elements which can be in different states. In order to define a hierarchical partition of the system, strongly coupled states are put together creating groups of states. To each group is associated a single global variable. For such
