Document Summary
We multiply by because they are diploid so theres only a 50% chance of the next individual to inherit the specific gene. The parents ar related to the individual. Every dollar that you get in your account lowers the amount that your siblings can get. Po is the optimal provisioning rate from the offsprings perspective. Pp is the optimal provisioning rate from the parents perspective. Theres different optimal rates from the 2 perspectives. The parents want to provide less resources than the ffspring want. If theres no chance of making offspring, cost is 0. If theres a higher chance to make offspring and if they are better, cost will increase. The researchers put out nectar and some of the nectar had carotenoids in it. Supplementing with carotenoids increased the chance that the birds will have a 2nd brud. If the offspring are supplemented with carotenoids it increased the begging signals and it makes their mouths more yellow.
