The abnormalities are believed to be caused by genetic inheritance‚ evolution‚ prenatal exposure‚ viral infections‚ or injuries to the brain tissue that affect the brain structure and chemistry. Also‚ it is believed that hormone levels and other levels of chemicals can cause the neurotransmitters to perform improperly which can lead to a mental disorder.

The Biological Importance of Water! The ultimate importance of water is none other than the fact that life cannot exist without it. Water being the major component of our body cells‚ typically making 70-95% of it‚ constructs the body mass with approximately 80% being water. Humans are not the only ones who contain the valued material but other creatures like the jellyfish hold 96% of water as their body mass. The structure of the water molecules enables it to have extreme properties that are

Outline principles that define the biological level of analysis (for example‚ patterns of behavior can be inherited; animal research may inform our understanding of human behavior; cognitions‚ emotions and behaviors are products of the anatomy and physiology of our nervous and endocrine systems). Introduction: Two principles that define the biological level of analysis are that patterns of behavior can be inherited and that animal research may inform our understanding of human behavior.

Biological Basis of Behavior William James- mental activity is also physiological activity Neuron- basic unit of the nervous system *Each neuron is a living cell with a nucleus and other parts common to all cells. Three main parts of the neuron: 1. Dendrites: the receiving part of the nucleus 2. Cell body (Soma): The processing part Electrochemical Transmission 3. Axon: the transmitting part Normal habit change: Doing the same behavior over and over again (same neurons being used over and over)

The Biological Importance of Water Water is perhaps the most important molecule for the survival and life of organisms. On the surface of the planet there is obviously much more area of water than land‚ which shows its significance. The fact that water makes up 60-95% of all living organisms shows the incredible biological importance of water. Water has many uses and roles‚ one of them it being used as a support unit in plants.
