Identify physiological factors as those related to the body's internal biological processes, such as hormones and neural signals that regulate hunger and satiety.
Recognize that hormonal signals like ghrelin and leptin play a key role: ghrelin stimulates appetite (hunger hormone), while leptin signals fullness (satiety hormone).
