sSFR compared to the Hubble type and stellar mass. The stellar mass is derived using the M/ L relation from this work (Equation (9)). Two global SFRs are shown: black points correspond to the SFR (22 μm; Equation (2)) and blue squares correspond to the combined IR+UV SFR. There is a similar linear trend (illustrated by the blue shaded regions) for both Hubble type and the host stellar mass. A range in SFRs (from 0.1 to 10  M  yr −1) are represented by the dashed lines.
