摘要：

Mammalian brain sizes have been linked to specific behavioral or physiological features because of simple scaling correlations. Examination of the correlation network for body size, brain size, basal metabolic rate, and gestation period indicates that the primary link is between maternal metabolic capacity and the developing brain of the offspring.
