Genetic predisposition -> we do not inherit illnesses but instead genes that risk being triggered by otherfactors.
Neurotransmitter imbalances -> levels of chemicals communicating between neurons are too high or low, affecting behaviour.
Physical health and serotonin -> exercise increases serotonin, improves sleep and alertness.
Mental health and neurotransmitters -> high dopamine linked to optimism neurotransmitter imbalances (e.g. dopamine) linked to schizophrenia.
Evaluation of biological approach to health (positives) -> practical uses (medicine or exercise can help hormone imbalances), support for effectiveness, geneticexplanation includes the role of environment.
Evaluation of biological approach to health (negatives) -> incomplete explanation- oversimplifies causes of health/illness, e.g. genes influence lifestyle (smoking, etc), so only indirect influence on health/ illness.
