Importance of stereoisomers in a biological system Isomers are compounds that have the same molecular formula but different structural formulas. Stereoisomers are isomers that have the same sequence of bonded atoms‚ but they differ in their three dimensional orientation in space. [pic] shown above is an example of the two types of Stereoisomers; Enantiomers‚ which are stereioisomers which are non-superimposible mirror images‚ much the same as one’s left and right hands are the same

What are the biological constraints in Classical Conditioning? Report the procedure and results of two studies supporting your answer. Word count: 1500 words excluding references Abstract A biological constraint in learning theory refers to an inherited tendency to learn and create certain relationships‚ and it has been said that some species are much more readily than others in learning such behaviour. Therefore it involves the factors which make populations resistant to evolutionary change

Discuss the biological approach in psychology. Refer to at least one other approach in your answer. (12 marks) The biological approach focuses on both the physiological and evolutionary aspects which explain human behaviour. The causal level of analysis incorporates physiological explanations‚ such as the effect of nerves and hormones on behaviour. According to biological psychologists‚ behaviour is controlled by the nervous system‚ which consists of the central nervous system (the brain and the

The biological explanation of criminal behaviour is a structural account of describing why people commit crimes. Structure-based explanations argue that human actions/ behaviours are driven by forces beyond their control. This can be administered by rules‚ views/opinions‚ faith‚ pressures and‚ in biological terms‚ inherited genes. The claims of the biological explanation have been under development since the early 19th century by amateur scientists and eugenicists. The latter claiming mentally ill

Running head: SUICIDE AMONG ADOLESCENTS Suicide Among Adolescents The taking of one’s life‚ as hard as it is for some to fathom‚ is becoming increasingly common. Suicide is even the third leading cause of death among adolescents age fifteen to nineteen (Hallfors‚ PhD‚ et al.‚ 2006). Suicide in general is hard enough to swallow‚ but children and adolescents are now turning to taking their own life instead of facing the life they have ahead of them. Their thoughts about suicide

Biological theories of crime causation adhere to the principle that many behavioral predispositions‚ including aggression and criminality are constitutionally or physiologically influenced and inherited of the first basic principles of biological theories is the mind and locus of personality which is the organ brain. The brain is the organ of behavior. We have the basic determinants of human behavior passed on from generation to generation. Human behavior and traits are genetically based to a considerable

Discuss the disruption of biological rhythms 24m One example of disruption of biological rhythms is due to shift work and shift lag. This disrupts your sleeping pattern because it means you are required to be alert at night‚ so need to sleep during the day. This reverses and disrupts your circadian rhythm‚ becoming desynchronised where it is no longer entrained by EZ’s. There are many consequences of desynchronisation such as sleep deprivation. Shift workers find it hard to sleep during the day
