The effect of brain size evolution on feeding propensity, digestive efficiency, and juvenile growth
One key hypothesis in the study of brain size evolution is the expensive tissue hypothesis; the idea that increased investment into the brain should be compensated by decreased investment into other costly organs, for instance the gut. Although the hypothesis is supported by both comparative and exp...
