the proposal that fetal growth tracks the mother's long-term nutritional history, giving offspring an averaged rather than short-term signal of the environment.

In biological anthropology, intergenerational phenotypic inertia refers to the proposal that fetal growth tracks the mother's long-term nutritional history, giving offspring an averaged rather than short-term signal of the environment. This meaning comes from Kuzawa (2004) in American Journal of Human Biology.[1]
