Randall Fleming submitted a homework assignment to Professor Zimbler for Biological Psychology 02 on 30 September 2009. The assignment covered chapters 1, 2, and 3. For chapter 1, Fleming summarized that religious affiliation seems to be the one human behavior with extremely low heritability. Genetic differences also likely account for differences in how rapidly people age, and evolution could select for genes that allow for higher reproduction rates before the onset of genes controlling old age.

Analysis of To Helen
The document analyzes Edgar Allan Poe's poem "To Helen" by examining the intrinsic elements and allusions within the poem and how they relate to Poe's life. It first provides context on poetry and Poe's biography. It then analyzes each stanza of the poem, identifying allusions to figures from Greek mythology like Helen of Troy, Hyacinth, Naiads, and Psyche. The analysis explains how these allusions reflect Poe using beautiful women from mythology to represent his love and how mythology was important in his life given his early hardships. It concludes the allusions and similes in the poem powerfully convey Poe's love for the woman who first showed him affection.

Pygmalion and galatea - Greek Mythology
Pygmalion was a sculptor in ancient Cyprus who became infatuated with an ivory statue he had carved of the perfect woman. He prayed to Aphrodite/Venus for the statue to be brought to life. Taking pity on Pygmalion, Venus brought the statue to life as a woman named Galatea. They married and had a son named Paphos. The story comes from Ovid's Metamorphoses, one of the most influential works of classical mythology.

Prymas And Thisbe Ppt
The story of Pyramus and Thisbe is an ancient Greek myth that influenced Shakespeare's Romeo and Juliet. Pyramus and Thisbe fell in love despite their families' feud, and secretly met under a mulberry tree. Thisbe was frightened away by a lion and Pyramus mistakenly thought Thisbe was killed. Upon finding her veil stained with blood, Pyramus took his own life. When Thisbe returned and found Pyramus dead, she also killed herself. Their blood stained the white mulberry fruit red in remembrance of their forbidden love.
Faith, love, time and dr
Dr. Lazaro has lost his faith in his work as a country doctor and in religion due to traumatic events in his life. When his son Ben wants to become a priest instead of a doctor like his father wishes, their relationship becomes distant. One night, Dr. Lazaro accompanies Ben to assist a sick child at the home of Pedro Esteban. Despite their efforts, the child dies. Witnessing Ben comfort the grieving parents and baptize another ill child rekindles Dr. Lazaro's wavering faith and brings him closer to his devout son.

The Epic (with Indarapatra & Sulayman)
An epic is a long narrative poem that relates the deeds of a larger-than-life hero who embodies the values of their society. Philippine epics were orally passed down through generations and chanted during celebrations. The hero of an epic embodies traits valued by their society like courage, determination, wisdom and goes on a long, dangerous journey where they perform valorous deeds by battling evil forces and saving others, demonstrating their virtue. One example of a Philippine epic is the story of Indarapatra and Sulayman which takes place in Magindanaw where four monsters attacked and features themes of bravery bringing honor and fighting for freedom and peace without living in fear.
The god stealer
Philip, a Filipino man who has become Christianized and lives in Manila, agrees to guide Sam, an American, to view the rice terraces of the Ifugao people. When the Ifugao refuse to sell Sam a statue of their god, Philip decides to steal his grandfather's god, representing his abandonment of his cultural heritage due to colonialism. Philip's theft causes his grandfather to die. The story examines the relationship between a colonized Filipino and colonizer American, and how colonialism led to confusion and loss of identity for Filipinos.

Adolescent Psychology Chapter Presentation: Puberty, Biological Foundations, ...
This chapter discusses puberty and biological foundations of adolescent development. It covers:
- What puberty is and its key physical and hormonal changes.
- Determinants of puberty onset like heredity, weight, hormones, and the endocrine system. Environmental factors like urban living can also influence timing.
- Growth spurts during puberty, where height increases by as much as 30% and weight gains 50%. Sexual maturation also occurs.
- Psychological impacts of puberty like changes in body image and potential social/emotional issues from early or late physical development.
- Biological foundations looking at evolution, genetics, and the interplay between heredity and environment in shaping adolescent
anp 2 geriatric consideratioPPT.pptx
This presentation summarizes key topics related to geriatric nursing. It introduces the speaker and defines geriatrics as the branch of medicine focusing on healthcare for elderly individuals. The document then outlines several theories of aging, including programmed, error, biological, and psychological theories. It also discusses common physiological changes in cardiovascular, pulmonary, and other body systems associated with aging. The presentation provides an overview of important concepts and trends in geriatric nursing.
Aging and model of aging
The document discusses various models of aging at both the individual and non-individual level. It describes several key models including: mechanistic aging which focuses on damage at the cellular/DNA level; organismal aging which takes a holistic view of cellular aging effects; contextual aging which considers social/environmental factors; mouse models which are useful mammalian models; yeast models including replicative and chronological lifespan studies; cellular models which examine finite cell division capacity; and the decremental model which views decline as inevitable with age. The models provide insights into aging mechanisms but also have limitations in representing all species.
hereditary and environment.pptx for medical
The document discusses the influence of heredity and environment on human development and personality. It states that both heredity and environment play important roles, with heredity determining certain inborn traits and potentials while environment influences the development and expression of traits. Key factors discussed include genetics, family background, socioeconomic status, culture, and interactions with other people in one's environment. The relationship between heredity and environment is described as interactive, with personality emerging from the combination of the two influences.
Phil DB4NameClassDate Professor.docx
The document discusses the influence of nature versus nurture on human behavior and personality. It argues that while genetics play a role, the environment has a stronger influence. A person's environment and upbringing can shape them to be well-adjusted or dysfunctional. Even people genetically predisposed to certain behaviors may not display them depending on their environment. The document also discusses how manipulating genes or environments could impact social groups and cultural development by changing human traits and isolating people from social contexts.
Trait theory
Trait theory suggests that criminal behavior stems from internal traits such as biological, genetic, neurological, and psychological factors. Early trait theories proposed that some individuals are "born criminals" due to inherent physical or mental abnormalities. Contemporary trait theory recognizes interactions between personal traits and environmental influences. Biological trait theories examine links between criminal behavior and biochemical imbalances, neurological conditions, genetics, and evolutionary factors. Psychological trait theories explore psychodynamic, behavioral, and cognitive explanations of crime.
Trait theory
This document summarizes trait theory and biological and psychological theories of crime. Trait theory focuses on internal forces like genetics, personality, and mental traits that may influence criminal behavior. Biological theories examine biochemical, neurological, and genetic factors that could impact criminal tendencies. Psychological theories include psychodynamic perspectives linking early childhood experiences to personality development, social learning theory proposing people model rewarded behaviors, and cognitive theories where reasoning processes shape perceptions and behavior.
Chapter3
The document discusses several topics related to the influence of nature and nurture on human diversity and development, including:
- Behavioral genetics research on the heritability of traits using twin and adoption studies.
- Evolutionary psychology perspectives on how natural selection may have influenced certain human behaviors and preferences.
- The role of parents, peers, and culture in influencing development through early experiences and socialization across different groups.
- Similarities and differences in areas like gender, temperament, and brain development that have genetic and environmental influences.
issues on human development
The document discusses several key issues in human development psychology:
1. It compares the nature vs nurture debate, focusing on the influence of genetics versus environment on human development.
2. It also examines the continuity vs discontinuity perspective, referring to whether development occurs gradually through continuity or in abrupt stages of discontinuity.
3. The debate on the influence of early life experiences versus later experiences in development is presented.
4. Finally, the concept of stability versus change in development is discussed, specifically regarding the stability of personality traits versus their ability to change over time through life experiences.
Chapter 4 reflection
Two serious consequences for children who live in poverty are malnutrition and lead poisoning. Malnutrition causes stress and anxiety that, combined with homelessness, can push children toward criminal acts as a means of survival. Long-term lead exposure lowers IQ and tolerance for frustration while increasing hyperactivity and attention deficits, negatively impacting children's futures.
Toxoplasma gondii and personality
Abstract
Toxoplasma Gondii is a parasite that can only sexually reproduce in cats. (Dubey, J., & Jones, J. 2008) It is able to modify animal behavior and mood through a variety of means, such as increasing the amount of Dopamine in the system through the release of the enzyme tyrosine hydroxylase causing increased impulsivity and risk taking behaviors (Costa, R. M.,2017). It is also able to modify genes through epigenetic means causing things like increased testosterone causing its host to be more aggressive. Toxoplasma Gondii does all of these things in order to make its main host, which is rats, more likely to be eaten by cats. The same things that are modified in rats in order to help the parasite in its quest to sexually reproduce also causes humans to have symptoms of psychosis and increased impulsivity. For example, people who are infected are found to have 2.5 times the amount of car crashes likely due to the increase in risky behavior (Flegr, J, 2002) and are more likely to develop disorders such as Schizophrenia and Intermittent Rage Disorder (Emil F. Coccaro, MD , 2016). This is likely due to changes in neurotransmitters and gene expression.
Keywords: Toxoplasmosis, Toxoplasma Gondii, DNA, Genes, Methylation
Epigenome.docx
1. Epigenetics dictates the roles and functions of genes by defining what cells do and when. It causes cells to differentiate into specific types like skin, brain, or liver cells.
2. Epigenetics involves changes in gene expression and activity through mechanisms like DNA methylation and histone modification rather than changes to the underlying DNA sequence. These changes can be influenced by factors like disease, lifestyle, age, and family genetics.
3. Research on epigenetics provides insights into the development of conditions like hypertension. Evidence suggests epigenetic mechanisms play a role by altering gene expression and modifying in response to environmental and lifestyle influences over generations.
MODULE 24 PHYSICAL DEVELOPMENT OF THE HIGH SCHOOLER.pptx
1) Adolescence begins with the physical changes of puberty and ends when adult roles are taken on. It involves physical, cognitive, and socio-emotional transitions.
2) Puberty brings rapid physical development through growth spurts and sexual maturation. Hormones trigger development of secondary sex characteristics like facial hair in boys and breasts in girls.
3) Ideals of masculinity and femininity can influence body image during adolescence. Teens may feel pressure to achieve certain body types and explore ways to change their appearance, such as unhealthy dieting or steroid use.
Psychology
This document discusses various factors that can influence intelligence, including heredity, environment, sex, culture, socioeconomic status, race, and geographic location. It also defines different levels of mental retardation (moron, imbecile, idiot) based on IQ and maturity levels. The causes of mental retardation are discussed as being primary/endogenous (familial, genetic disorders) or secondary/exogenous (prenatal issues like Down syndrome, postnatal issues like disease or injury). Treatment methods include medical, psychological, and training/educational approaches. Giftedness is defined as those with IQs above 130 or those who perform remarkably in valuable skills, and identification methods include teacher/peer ratings, tests, grades.
Genetic and Evolutionary Roots of Behavior
This document provides an overview of a course on the genetic and evolutionary roots of behavior. It covers several key topics:
1. Genetics including DNA, genes, chromosomes, genetic transmission, and genetic influences on traits.
2. Evolution by natural selection, including concepts like adaptation, mutations, and the focus on proximate and ultimate causes in evolutionary psychology.
3. The genetics and evolution of behavior, exploring topics like behavior genetics, heritability estimates from twin studies, and how both genes and environment influence traits. Specific examples like intelligence and sexuality are discussed.
Ch 2 genetics & evolutionary roots of behavior
This document provides an overview of genetics and evolutionary psychology. It discusses key concepts such as:
1. Genes and heredity, including DNA, chromosomes, genetic transmission, and genetic influences on behavior.
2. Natural selection and evolution, including evolutionary causes of behavior and criticisms of evolutionary psychology.
3. The genetics and evolution of behavior, including heritability estimates, twin studies, and how evolutionary psychologists study the impact of genetics on traits and behaviors.
It explores topics like intelligence, sexuality, parenting, and more from an evolutionary perspective. The document aims to explain genetic and evolutionary roots and influences on human behavior.
Developmental potential
1) Over 200 million children under age 5 in developing countries fail to reach their developmental potential due to risks like poverty, malnutrition, poor health, and unstimulating home environments.
2) Two indicators of poor development, childhood stunting and absolute poverty, are closely associated with poor cognitive performance and educational outcomes.
3) Early cognitive development strongly predicts later school performance. Interventions in early childhood can provide sustained benefits to cognition and academic achievement.
Power Point Genetic Modification
The document discusses several topics related to genetics including:
1) How dominant and recessive alleles control traits and how co-dominant alleles result in a third phenotype from both parents' traits.
2) The Human Genome Project which studied the human genome framework across several countries from 1990-2003.
3) Examples of genetic disorders - Sickle cell anemia, Down syndrome, and Epilepsy.
4) The role of genetic counseling in informing parents about potential genetic disorders in future children and available tests and their limitations.
5) Debate around issues with genetic modification including unintended consequences and challenging divine creation. Benefits discussed include developing hardier crops and animals.
