<u>Answer</u>: Option A) convergent.

<u>Explanation</u>:

  • <em>Convergent evolution</em> is a type of evolution in which the organisms evolve independently and attain <em>similar traits</em> in order to adapt to similar environments even though they are<em> not closely related.</em>
  • The similarity can be in terms of body forms, body color, organs, and adaptations.
  • The structures formed due to convergent evolution are analogous structures that perform a similar function but have a different origin.
  • <em>So green and blue algae show convergent evolution as they look similar but are not closely related.</em>

At this time the client is still too anxious to be capable of coping with the reasons for handwashing. Continued handwashing does not reveal an understanding of the underlying problem, nor is it a sign of progress. Telling the client not to worry denies the client's feelings and may close off communication.</span>
