AB  - The ontogenetic growth modeling has been of conspicuously scientific interest, as well as its practical importance in many industrial activities for optimal design. Much work has been done recently to understand the growth mechanism of living organism with a nonlinear time dependence. Some quantitative metabolic models which have been provided to describe organism growth curves are in comparison with what for ontogenetic growth represented by G.B. West et al. (West et al., 2001) in his basic formulations used to discuss the application on different growth patterns. Herein the analytical solution is also involved. In this paper we re-analyzed the assumptions underlying them to find whether the basic relation of organism growth estimated can inosculate with the equation we have proposed.
