What is the Id of psychology?
Freud first mentioned the ID in his theories of psychodynamic abnormality. He basically said that the subconscious mind could be broken down into three separate things, the ID, the ego and the superego. The ID controls all of our desires, physical, emotional and sexual. The ID is believed to be with us from birth, which is why children will always take what they want with less concern for other people. The ego develops at around seven, when the child is going through the Oedipus or Electra Complex. This is the desire in us that thinks more about everyone else and so tries to stop the ID from taking what it wants. The Superego tries to balance both of these wishes. It understands that we need basic things to keep the ID happy for example food and so tries to obtain this in a social way ie. not stealing. When both of these are balanced, the mind is said to be in an equilibrium.

How are the psychodynamic approach and the biological approach similar?
Neither of them are learnt, the psychodynamic is caused by forces in the unconscious where as the biological is caused by chemical imbalance. Both are predetermined psychodynamic individuals have no control over their behaviour and biological medical condition controls behaviour. Hope I've helped a bit! There's lots of similarities like they are both reductionist approaches the psychodynamic approach simplifies the complexities human behaviour and mechanics of the mind (id,ego,superego), The biological approach reduces complex behaviours to a set of simple explanations like reducing the experience of stress to the action of adrenaline. Both approaches are determinist, this basically means that our behaviour is predetermined and that we have no control over it or we have no freewill. They both have had successful applications for treatments of mental disorders and for giving understanding on how to treat them and why they happen. This is a complex answer but practically everything you need is in here i hope it has been helpful :)
