Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Environmental factors are likely to interact with genetics during sensitive periods of brain development, as this is when the brain is most susceptible to various influences that can contribute to the development of autism spectrum disorder. While alcohol consumption during pregnancy and genetic carriers can be risk factors, they do not necessarily interact with genetics in the same way as environmental factors during sensitive periods of brain development. The time of conception also does not necessarily play a role in the interaction between environmental factors and genetics.
