Final Answer : B, Explanation :  Schizophrenia cases vary greatly in terms of severity, duration, and prognosis. In fact, it is considered a spectrum disorder with a wide range of symptoms and manifestations. While environmental factors may contribute to the onset and exacerbation of symptoms, there is strong evidence of biological factors such as genetics, brain chemistry, and brain structure playing a significant role in the development of schizophrenia. The idea of cold, rejecting mothers causing schizophrenia has been widely discredited as a simplistic and harmful theory.
