dr. garber works with children who have grown up in poor socioeconomic conditions. many of her clients come from homes that do not emphasize education or social involvement, and opportunities for advancement are practically nonexistent. many are malnourished, have been exposed to a variety of environmental toxins, and have multiple infections without adequate or timely health care. what might these children be at risk for?
intellectual disability
organically induced deprivation
increased emotional intelligence
genetic inhibition

Explanation:

Malnutrition, exposure to environmental toxins, lack of educational and social - support, and inadequate healthcare can all negatively impact a child's cognitive development, increasing the risk of intellectual disability. Organic deprivation is not a commonly used term in this context. Lack of positive environmental factors is unlikely to increase emotional intelligence. There is no indication of genetic inhibition being related to these environmental factors.

Answer:

intellectual disability
