Paternity certainty can influence mating systems by affecting the level of male investment in offspring. In species where paternity is certain, males may invest more in parental care, leading to monogamous or biparental care systems. In contrast, in species with uncertain paternity, males may invest less, leading to polygamous or promiscuous mating systems.
