Do Biological Factors, Like Genes, Contribute to a Students Classroom Behavior?

 


What indications are there that behavior has a biological basis?

Behavior often is species specific. People are distinctly different from all other species, for example no other mammal would destroy a habitat with callus afterthought.

These distinct actions all show that the human species’ has specific behavior.
