Final Answer :
B
Explanation :
The biopsychosocial approach considers multiple factors, including biology (sex hormones), psychology (sexual fantasies), and social/cultural values. This integrated understanding is exemplified in option B. Option A refers to a specific theory about same-sex attractions and does not necessarily consider psychological or social factors. Option C refers to a therapy approach, which is more specific and focused than the biopsychosocial approach. Option D refers to a refuted explanation and is not an example of the biopsychosocial approach.
