The biological perspective states that the brain uses a number of chemicals as messengers to communicate with other parts of itself and with the nervous system. These chemical messengers‚ called neurotransmitters‚ are released and received by the brain’s many nerve cells‚ which are also called neurons. Neurons are constantly communicating with each other by way of exchanging neurotransmitters. This communication system is essential to all of the brain’s functions. A tiny space called a synapse connects

Biological Psychologists apply the principles of biology to the study of mental processes and behaviour. They believe that the mind and the brain are the same and that thought processes and behaviour cannot occur without the operation of the central nervous system (CNS). This psychological theory says that an imbalance of chemicals in the brain can cause mental disorders such as bipolar disorder. Thought process and human behaviour have a biological basis and are influenced by both our genetic inheritance

These tests take advantage of the fact that different types of molecules have different functional groups and‚ therefor‚ different chemical properties. Thus‚ they will react to test reagents (also called indicators) differently. Materials: Biuret‚ Sudan III‚ Iodine‚ Benedict‚ water

When it comes to Alan Goodman’s quote “to understand why the idea of race is a biological myth requires a major paradigm shift”‚ I do highly agree because we have been taught to classify and relate to each other through race. By stating it is a biological myth is going to cause a huge controversy for example in the video ‘Race: The Power of an Illusion (2003) – Ep1‚ “The Difference Between Us” shows proof that though we can physically and culturally connect through race we are genetically still very
