In the animal world parental care is a widespread phenomenon. However, in each species it may looks different, even if the aim is the same for all: to increase their reproductive success by increasing the fitness of their offspring.Physiological and behavioral features of parents, an independence of children at birth and environmental factors have a huge influence on form of parental care. The sex conflict is a result of sexual dimorphism and uneven distribution of the efforts during the parental care. The way of care and the fact who will perform the role of guardian depends on the solution of that problem. This situation often gives a result that one of the parents decide to leave, which is caused by possible to achieve greater success in...
