Six Theoretical Models of Development and Why They are Important for Understanding the Behavior of Youth There are six major theoretical models used to explain how human development evolves. The Biological Model looks for organic causes to cognitive‚ learning‚ and behavioral disorders and uses medication for treatment. The Behavioral Model is observable and measurable. It uses positive reinforcement to obtain desired behavior. The Social Model focuses on modeling and combines behavior and cognitive

DNA‚ or deoxyribonucleic acid‚ is the hereditary material in humans and almost all other organisms. Nearly every cell in a person’s body has the same DNA. Most DNA is located in the cell nucleus (where it is called nuclear DNA)‚ but a small amount of DNA can also be found in the mitochondria (where it is called mitochondrial DNA or mtDNA). The information in DNA is stored as a code made up of four chemical bases: adenine (A)‚ guanine (G)‚ cytosine (C)‚ and thymine (T). The order‚ or sequence‚ of

used theories of why criminals commit crimes is the person ’s ability to commit crime is pre-determined. If that is so‚ criminals have no choice of what they do. Some of the genetic abnormalities that would make someone pre-determined would be the XYY chromosomal structure (Not effective in women‚ just men). A chromosomal test in prisons had an outcome of 27Y‚ which means most of the prisoners had that many Y chromosomes. This is a chemical imbalance caused from

The term abortion most commonly refers to the induced abortion of a human pregnancy. After viability‚ the relevant procedure is referred to as a "late termination of pregnancy".[1][note 1] Modern medicine utilizes medications and surgical procedures for

Evolution is simply the process of organisms developing and diversifying from a previous earlier form during the history of the earth. The four forces evolution‚ what is believed to push evolution to go forward‚ are mutation‚ natural selection‚ genetic drift‚ and gene flow. Let’s start with mutation. A mutation‚ occurring during the process of mitosis or meiosis‚ is a change in genetic code or chromosome. This can affect how one physically looks‚ behave‚ and think. Mutations are random. Most are
