An Evolutionarily significant unit(ESU)

It predicts that animals will

In the 1970s, game theory was extensively applied in biology, largely as a result of the work of John Maynard Smith and his Evolutionarily stable strategy.
Most of us prefer sweets over sour and bitter foods because, Evolutionarily, our mesolimbic pathway reinforces that sweet things
provide a healthy source of carbohydrates for our bodies.
Crying is a primitive behaviour shared across mammals,

Final conclusion:"Since the consumption of modern alcoholic beverages- including binge drinking and getting drunk-

As noted, investment in the relationship over time is likely to be an important factor as well,
and one with an Evolutionarily adaptive component of protecting allocated resources,
