Answer:

  • Controllable Factors: Diet, exercise, adequate water intake, smoking, use of harmful substances.
  • Uncontrollable factors: genetics, age, pollution, bone formation, family history.

Explanation:

A set of studies recently published in The Lancet found that while people are living longer, quality of life has declined. The main reason for this situation is the adoption of unhealthy habits throughout life and living with diseases in old age, and genetic diseases.

Quality of life when related to health is directly linked to factors that affect health. These factors may be controllable or uncontrollable. Controllable factors are those that you can stop (when they are harmful) or continue (when they are beneficial, such as drinking an adequate amount of water, exercising regularly, eating healthy, not consuming harmful substances to the body, among others.

The uncontrollable factors are those that you cannot stop or continue. There is no way to prevent these factors from interfering with health. An example of these factors is genetics, family history, pollution (mainly caused by particles), age (due to diseases that come with old age), among others.

5. Describe the effects of bullying on both the bully and the victim of bullying.
monitta

Answer:

(the answer is down below.)

Explanation:

Kids who are bullied can experience negative physical, social, emotional, academic, and mental health issues. Kids who are bullied are more likely to experience depression and anxiety, increased feelings of sadness and loneliness, health complaints, changes in sleep and eating patterns, and loss of interest in activities they used to enjoy. Sometimes, these kids are more likely to miss or skip school. These issues may persist into adulthood. They also have decreased academic achievement—GPA and standardized test scores—and school participation. They are more likely to miss, skip, or drop out of school.

Kids who bully others can also engage in violent and other risky behaviors into adulthood. Kids who bully are more likely to abuse alcohol and other drugs in adolescence and as adults, get into fights, vandalize property, drop out of school, e.t.c.
