Attention Deficit Disorder (ADD) is recognized as a neurological disorder that affects people by making it difficult for them to pay attention or to maintain their behavior. People with ADD also show signs of impulsiveness and hyperactivity. Biology and environmental factors are the primary causes of ADD. In biology, it is notable that ADD is linked to mental disorders. Besides, ADD results from a combination of environmental and genetic risk factors (Andrea 24). In genetics, Attention Deficit Disorder is caused by an imbalance of small molecules responsible for communication often found between neurons and dopamine. Therefore, whenever there is an imbalance of dopamine-related nervous system, there is a high possibility of a person developing ADD. Hyperstimulation of the colliculus in the middle of the brain that receives data from the retina is also linked to causes of ADD and so is the accumulation of the neurotransmitter noradrenaline.
Attention Deficit Disorder is also caused by childhood exposure to som...
