A biological child is a child born to his/her parents. Such a child is genetically related to its parents. Terms such as ‘natural child’ or ‘genetic child’ are also used to refer a biological child. An illegitimate child acknowledged by his/her father also comes under the biological child category. A biological child is different from a adopted child.
