Individuals who do not consume fructose do not display these symptoms. Which of the following describes this condition?
a. It is incompletely penetrant, due to environmental factors.
b. It has variable expressivity, due to environmental factors.incorrect

It has variable expressivity due to the environmental factors.

The variation in expressivity occurs due to the environmental factors of that individual. Expressivity describes the differences observed in the phenotype between two individuals that belongs to same genotype.

In the condition, when the patient is allowed to consume the fructose based food, so it expresses the change in its body due to no tolerance against fructose so we can conclude that the change occurs due to environment not due to genetics.

The geocentric model says that the earth is at the center of the cosmos or universe, and the planets, the sun and the moon, and the stars circles around it. The early heliocentric models consider the sun as the center, and the planets revolve around the sun.
