Answer:

The fact that there are now treatments that help diagnosed children learn to sit and talk.

Explanation:

Spinal muscular atrophy type 1 is a genetic disease which causes muscle disfunction as a consequence of nerve cells that do not provide signals to the muscles.

It is also called Werdnig-Hoffmann disease, and it is followed by twitching as well as the inability to control one's limbs.

While parents should be informed about all the smallest details of their child's condition, <em>they should by no means be discouraged. </em>It is important to let them know THERE ARE <em>options</em> and <em>chances of improvement</em>.

faust18 [17]

Answer:

B is the correct option. "Dr. Gates is a proponent of the psychoanalytic perspective, and Dr. Maru is a proponent of the behavioral perspective."

On the other hand, <u>Dr. Maru</u> is a <u>proponent of the behavioral perspective</u> because <u>her belief relates</u> to the <u>learned behavior instead of emphasizing internal states of mind</u> (innate behavior). Behavior that learned through <u>conditioning and reinforcement</u> (rewards and punishment) is referring to behavioral perspective.
