The Biological Bases of Behavior

Chapter 3

Genetics

  • DNA
  • Chromosomes
  • Genes
  • Polygenic
  • Twins
  • Identical (monozygotic)

Twin studies The Nervous System

  • I. Central nervous system
  • A. Brain, Spinal cord
  • II. Peripheral nervous system
  • A. Somatic nervous system
  • 1. Voluntary: Afferent, Efferent
  • 2. Autonomic: Sympathetic, parasympathetic
