===Data Description===
[[Image:SOCR_Data_Dinov_EnglishLetterFrequency.png|150px|thumbnail|right| [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Letter_frequency English Letter Frequencies] ]]

These data represent the relation between weights of the body and brain of various species. It may be used to discuss bivariate exploratory and quantitative data analyses in the case of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brain-to-body_mass_ratio allometric relationships]. Brain-to-body weight ratio is assumed to be related to species intelligence. The [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encephalization_quotient encephalization quotient] is a more complex measurement that takes into account allometric effects of widely divergent body sizes across several taxa. The brain-to-body mass ratio is a simpler measure of [http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Encephalization encephalization] within species.
