Maternal and paternal resource allocation before and after birth.
Before birth and during weaning the mother's role in fetal nutrition and support far outweighs the father. Following weaning the role of the father increases. The placenta is only involved in utero; following this, the brain is likely to be the organ most important in the drive for resources. Expression of imprinted genes, acting as resource enhancers (RE) or inhibitors (RI), may alter to reflect this [92].
