Test your knowledge on the biopsychosocial aspects of human nature

• To study humans, it's necessary to consider three fundamental aspects: biological, psychological, and social.
• These aspects have different concepts and methods but share the same object of study: the human as a biopsychosocial unit.
• Humans are different from plants and other animals due to exclusive characteristics acquired in the evolutionary process, such as symbolic language, abstract thinking, and cultural creation.
• Humans evolved their cognitive abilities instead of just increasing their instincts, which allowed them to choose between multiple environments and ways of life.
• Humans also acquired the ability to modify their environment.
• The development of a human embryo follows a similar sequence to the history of evolution.
• Humans experience changes analogous to those of lower forms and in the same order.
• The biological aspect studies the structure and functioning of the organism.
• The psychological aspect studies personality and interpersonal relationships.
• The social aspect studies the laws, relationships, and culture of humans.
