Spose we were able to insert chromosomes from one fertilized egg into another, after removing the original chromosomes from the second; then implanting the second egg in the first egg's "mom". How much would the other egg's creator contribute to the offspring's outcomes?
Um let's leave the nucleus excepting the chromosomes, but we swap those out entirely

I think the parent of the chromosomes that end up in the offspring would be the primary contributor to later outcomes. At least in as much as the outcomes are heritable. As it seems many outcomes are more heritable than environmental, other eggs mom would have large contribution
