Default Anyone who is knowledgable about biology: I have a question for you

There are certain species that seem to be bigger the closer they are to equator. For example you find subspecies of cockroaches in Central America and Madagascar that are quite larger than those you find farther from the equator. The same can be said for snakes and turtles. Anacondas are the largest snakes in the world. Those snakes farther from the equator are smaller in comparison. Giant turtles are found on the Galapagos islands. What is the explanation for this?

More sunlight = more photosynthesis = more glucose = more cellular respiration
