What are some of the various attempts to explain the gender ratio problem? How do biosocial criminologists address this issue? What factors need to be addressed when studying crime and gender?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

What are some of the major findings of modern genetic research in criminology? What does this suggest about human behavior in relation to social and physical environments?
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Answer to Question 1

Answer: Answers should discuss the gender ratio problem and the work of researchers such as Freda Adler, Darrell Steffensmeier, and Thomas Bernard. Walshs emphasis on gender itself as being responsible for the observed differences should be expanded upon, and the need to emphasize biology when studying gender differences should be discussed.

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Answers should highlight the different ways genetics have been studied to link crime, including the Human Genome Project, the Brain Activity Mapping Project, and similar research. Answers should contribute to the belief that one of the major contributions of genetics to criminology is that significant research shows that criminal tendencies can be inherited. Overall, the interaction of genes and the behavioral possibilities that they represent, coupled with the social and physical environment, produce meaningful human activity important in crime causation.
