A "mating error" (such as choosing an incompatible mate) could potentially result in negative consequences for both individuals involved. However, it would be most costly to Renee as females generally invest more time and energy into reproduction and caring for offspring. Therefore, choosing an incompatible mate could result in wasted resources, lost opportunities to reproduce with a better mate, and potential harm to any offspring produced.
