Defining Biological Psychology. Alternative names of biopsychology, such as behavioral neuroscience and physiological biology, indicate a preliminary definition. Researchers in this field examine not only how biology-particularly the nervous system-affects behavior, but also how behaviors affect the brain.They conduct experiments, often using lab animals as a model for humans, to explore the interactions between the environment, behavior and physiology.esearchers in this field examine not only how biology-particularly the nervous system-affects behavior, but also how behaviors affect the brain.

Mourning Doves raise three or more broods in a single breeding season. Both parents build a flimsy platform nest of twigs located from 5 to 25 feet up in a tree or bush. Two white eggs hatch in about 14 - 16 days. One egg is laid in the evening, and the second on the next morning.ourning Doves raise three or more broods in a single breeding season. Both parents build a flimsy platform nest of twigs located from 5 to 25 feet up in a tree or bush. Two white eggs hatch in about 14 - 16 days. One egg is laid in the evening, and the second on the next morning.
After they are through building the nest, the female lays one or, more often, two eggs. She incubates at night for a period of 14 to 20 days; the male incubates during the day. Due the short incubation periods, doves are able to raise up a maximum of six broods annually. Since the male and female doves look alike, onlookers may think the female never leaves the nest at all.
