This assignment challenges you to consider children’s understanding of biology and factors which lead them to anthropomorphize (or attribute human functions and feelings to non-human animals and objects). Refer to the “Biological Concepts” section from Chapter 8 of your textbook as well as your own experiences in order to provide brief yet substantive answers the following questions:
Read the “Biological Concepts” section of your textbook and briefly summarize in your own words (without using quotes) how children’s understanding of inheritance, illness, and death progress through childhood. Try to describe each one in three sentences or less. TEXTBOOK LINK HERE: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1rV4a-7ozXiBIxJkOK…
There are cultural differences in children’s biological concepts. Describe one such example from the textbook, and explain why cultural differences emerge. Since even adult humans anthropomorphize by attributing human functions and feelings to animals and objects, it is likely that you have done so yourself at one time or another. Provide one example of a time you have anthropomorphized and consider what may have led you to do so.
How do you think your views about biology are affected by your own life experiences?
