Question
Chapter 8, Problem 8.1CTDQ
To determine
The consequences of defining health as a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being; and the people that might favor or oppose this definition of health.
Expert Solution & Answer
Answer to Problem 8.1CTDQ
By defining health people know the exact meaning of being healthy that influence their professional as well as personal life.
Thus, people that are really concerned about their health are in favor of this definition of health.
Explanation of Solution
Health is the condition of biological body which is a state of complete physical, metal and social well being. By defining health, it gives proper elaboration of being healthy. People will be analyzed on this basis. It includes complete physical as well as mental well being. Social well being is also included in it so that people are well mannered socially for complete health.
The people that are really concerned about their health will be in the favor of this definition of health. By doing this, they will know that mental as well as social well being is also necessary for being healthy.
The people that are not concerned about their health will not be in the favor of this definition. They think that only physical well being is necessary for health. They are not socially active.

Using a 20-foot contour interval, draw a contour line for each 20-foot change in elevation below and above 100 feet (e.g., 60 feet, 80 feet, 120 feet).

Use the profile graph in Figure 7.14 to construct a west-east profile along the line A-A' on the contour map you completed in Figure 7.12. Step 1. Our sample profile will be along line A-A. When constructing profiles on maps provided by your instructor, do not draw on the map. Step 2. Lay a piece of paper along the line of the profile you want to construct. In this example this is line A-A'. Mark each place where a contour line intersects the edge of the paper and note the elevation of the contour line. Step 3. On a separate piece of paper, draw a horizontal line slightly longer than your profile line, A-A'. Select a vertical scale for your profile that begins slightly. below the lowest elevation along the profile and extends slightly beyond the highest elevation. Mark this scale on either side of the horizontal line. Lay the marked paper edge (from Step 2) along the horizontal…arrow_forward
