Abstract

Biological basis of life appearance throughout the inseparable process of growth and development, is consisted of two basic determinants. They are: the gene inherited from parents in which morphogenesis (development) is programmed and the factors of the environment which condition and direct it. The genetic material of both parents potentially determines the new organism in the complex anatomic functional pattern within the genetic continuity in which biochemical process are carried out. The genetic changes as well as the harmful agents of the environment have essential influence on occurrence of a wide range of abnormalities. According to this the changed biologic basis, caused by genetic or environmental changes, results with impairments and disabilities.
