(1995), it looks into how mate choice is based on the difference in MHC.

We can't say for sure that these physiological changes are due to pheromones, yet we come up with this umbrella term to fit it under to explain these behaviours.

In particular, study by Wedekind suggests that sweat in HMC could play a role in this selection. ]]> 2021-11-12 05:30:34 UTC https://padlet.com/laurenbinnington/wl69v4wfksp7iqtp/wish/1885924019 jlee719 https://padlet.com/laurenbinnington/wl69v4wfksp7iqtp/wish/1885924141 Hard to research on this topic (hard to control) (lack of empirical evidence)]]> 2021-11-12 05:30:41 UTC https://padlet.com/laurenbinnington/wl69v4wfksp7iqtp/wish/1885924141 https://padlet.com/laurenbinnington/wl69v4wfksp7iqtp/wish/1885924874 Pheromones offer insight into how mate preferences have developed biologically over time.
