Chapter 52.6, Problem 4C
Summary Introduction
To explain: The basis that a number of females invest in caring for their offspring than males.
Introduction: The selection of the species is chosen by nature itself. Criteria of adaptability and having the superior genes that are beneficial for the population in an individual are promoted by the natural selection. The variations that are adopted by the individual serve the criteria for a better survival rate of the species.

How can altruism be adaptive if it can result in fewer offspring for an individual?
i. Actors and recipients are characterised by increased reproductive success in mutually beneficial interactions.
ii. Actors benefit and recipients incur costs (i.e., are harmed) in selfish interactions.
iii. Actors incur costs (i.e., are harmed) and recipients benefit in altruistic interactions.
iv. Actors incur costs (i.e., are harmed) and recipients incur greater costs in spiteful interactions.v. Hamilton's rule can be used to show that an allele encoding altruistic behaviour could be favoured; spiteful behavior, however, never can evolve.
