Answer to Question 1

Answer: Answers should define biosocial theory and stress the emphasis on interaction between biology and the environment.

Answer to Question 2

Crimes discussed could include assault, property crimes, and domestic violence. The possible link between barometric pressure and violent crime should also be reviewed and answers should also explain how research results are consistent with routine activities theory.
