Answer:

the availability heuristic

Explanation:

Heuristic means a practical way of solving a problem, learning or discovering something. In this example there are only two facts available: Tyra is extremely beautiful and almost six feet tall. Therefore your practical prediction is based on what is available, and that leads you to the prototype of a model... but you can be wrong!
