The interaction between biological systems creates complexity because of the vast interactions in species. There are predator prey relationships that rely on a balance between the two. If there is too many of one and not enough of another there is an imbalance that throws off the food chain. The imbalance of the food chain affects all the organisms in that community. There are many communities where humans are the cause in the imbalance and the food chain flips. Primary consumers over power tertiary

The Biological Approach One of the most perplexing issues in psychology is understanding the relationship between the mind and the brain. We all recognize that we have conscious awareness of our surroundings‚ and also of ourselves (self-awareness). It is this experience which has normally been described as the mind. But what is the basis of the mind? Is it the expression of a non-physical soul‚ or is it a product of physical processes within our body? Philosophers and scientists have been pondering
