Testing the prenatal androgen hypothesis: measuring digit ratios, sexual orientation, and spatial abilities in adults.

abstract：:Interactions between the bluestreak cleaner wrasse Labroides dimidiatus and its client reef fish are a textbook example of interspecific mutualism. The fact that clients actively visit cleaners and invite inspection, together with evidence that cleaners eat many client ectoparasites per day, indeed strongly suggests a...
