Both purple and white flowers are recessive phenotypes. In order for an organism to exhibit a recessive phenotype, its genotype must be homogenous for the recessive allele. This is only possible if the parents of the organisms are also purebreeding and they demonstrate the same recessive phenotypes.

A girl of normal stature is born to two parents with achondroplasia who have very short stature, especially disproportionately s

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

Explanation:

Achondroplasia is an autosomal dominant disorder that is expressed in both homozygous and heterozygous dominant genotypes. Since two affected parents have a normal girl child, both the parents should be heterozygous carrier for the disease. Let's assume that the dominant allele "A" is responsible for the disease. Genotype of both the parents of the girl would be "Aa". The genotype of girl with normal stature is "aa". Genotype of her normal partner is "aa".

A cross betwee aa X aa would get all the progeny with "aa" genotype. Therefore, all of their children would have normal stature and there is 0% probability for them to have a child with achondroplasia.

Dr. Garcia’s emphasis best illustrates Biopsychosocial approach.

Explanation:

It is an interdisciplinary model that looks at the interconnection between biology, psychology, and socio-environmental factors and their effects on individuals.

It was developed by George L. Engel in 1977 and it was first of its kind that employed such diverse thinking.

This model displays the development of illness through the complex interaction of biological, psychological, and social factors.

This approach reopened new pathways for the idea of mind-body dualism which forgotten during the biomedical approach.
