You are part of a team of pediatric specialists responsible with diagnosing and treating infants and young children with birth defects. A patient presents with these symptoms: coloboma (a hole in the iris), cardiac defects, narrowing of the choana (back of the nasal passage), small stature, genital anomalies, and Mondini deformation of the cochlea. What do you suspect the patient has?

The figure to the right shows the potential energy curves for the electronic ground state and an excited state for a diatomic molecule. The horizontal lines represent vibrational states. The vibrational quantum numbers for the ground and excited electronic states are given by v” and v’ receptively. According to the Frank-Condon principle, the transition from v’=0 to which lower vibrational state would have the highest probability of emission?
