Expert Solution
Step 1

Physicalism is the philosophical concept that states that the mind and the body cannot be conceived as two different entities. It depends upon the idea that since conscious facts or facts about the mind cannot be logically deduced from the physical facts of the world, it is best to conceive the world as being physical alone. Physicalism is also known as materialism.
