Question

ok, so im doing a project and one of the questions is "what are at least 4 topics that society faces that deals with biology?" please help, its due tomorrow !!

thank you :)

Answer 1

Child abuse relates more to the family in society than to biology.

Try something like embryionic development, genetic engineering or cloning as suggested avbove,

Answer 2

Not Really.  

Child Abuse relates to Sociology and the actions of Perverts and Sociopaths.

Answer 3

The only way that child abuse would relate to biology is that if you are abused as a child, it is more likely that you will be an abuser when you grow up. But then... that may be more about environment than biology.

Answer 4

not really ............. it can relate to things like the injury to a doctor but i think things like birth control( the more the kids r born the society is affected), drugs(health and society), deseases (health of the society) and the affect of technology on people(like the impact of tv on eyes) ,,,,,,,,,,,,,,,, r good topices for this project  

Answer 5

I would have thought it was more about psychology

Topics I can think of are Abortion, Increasing population, genetic modified plants, cloning, genetic engineering,  

Answer 6

Child abuse is more related to the definition of "child abuse" In allot of cultures what we would consider "abusing a child" would be their method of teaching a child. So it has little to do with the biology, however the biology can be a factor due to the fact that humans are hard-wired to be aggressive (at least men are, Its a prehistoric survival tool) Personally I find that it is the subjective culture that would create what we call "child abuse" For example, If I was born in sparta, 500 years ago It wouldn't matter what Biology I have, I would have to take all those trials and act just like everyone else, It doesn't matter If the same biology was taken from a 23yo in the 21st century, I would be assimilated into it.
