The principle that all events, including human actions or the environmental changes are ultimately determined by the causes regarded as external to the wheel and nothing is predetermined. Based on the assumptions which are constrained contradicts the idea of empowerment and minimizes the importance of human action and decision making, because a person is morally responsible for his conduct. Determinism is the modern name coined in the nineteenth century instead of Democritus, similarly the fatalism states that every event is predetermined it does not normally requires any casual law or any other changes. Determinism is sometimes confused as Predestination or Fatalism. Leucippus (mentor and materialist) say “Nothing occurs at random, but

Biological determinism is sometimes called as Genetic determinism, is the idea of each of our behaviours, beliefs and desires are fixed by our genetic nature. Gregor Mendel, the Austrian botanist worked on heredity, after his rediscovery biological determinism became increasingly formulated in terms of Genetics. The property of biological determinism is the prerogative that natural and intrinsic inequalities between individual human beings by birth are determinative of eventual differences in their wealth to find their true level. The second feature of the society is their reductions. Biological determinism has specific forms like the social problems which discusses the focus of attention. The most elementary difference is that individual human beings in patent skills and temperament, are recognized to unchangeable genetic differences. B.F. Skinner believes that all human activities are controlled by genetic and environmental factors and these are determined by antecedent physical causes. Social success is ascribed to differential innate intelligence, coded by genes. Race differences are also recognized as genetic differences between the different races, like white have more recognition than the blacks because it is appealed. Sex differences are based on their chromosomal differences between males and females. Class differences can be seen in the poorer sections where people are categorised into lower social classes and higher social classes. Poverty runs in the family for genetic reasons. Aberrant social differences arises from the discrepancies where violent men is different from the criminally insane
