Answer:
self-image
Explanation:
"Self-image" refers to<em> how we see or think about ourselves as we are viewed by the society. </em>This is based on many factors like how a person looks like <em>(appearance)</em>, a person's<em> performance</em> and <em>relationship with other people</em>.
Self-image gives you a picture on what your <em>assets</em> are, as well as your <em>liabilities</em>. Then, you start labeling yourself accordingly. However, this is not true or based on reality all the time. The goal is to have a <u><em>"healthy self-image."</em></u> A person with this kind of image is able to accept his flaws, yet tries his best in every way.

Answer:
Physiological changes occur with aging in all organ systems. The cardiac output decreases, blood pressure increases and arteriosclerosis develops. The lungs show impaired gas exchange, a decrease in vital capacity and slower expiratory flow rates. The creatinine clearance decreases with age although the serum creatinine level remains relatively constant due to a proportionate age-related decrease in creatinine production. Functional changes, largely related to altered motility patterns, occur in the gastrointestinal system with senescence, and atrophic gastritis and altered hepatic drug metabolism are common in the elderly. Progressive elevation of blood glucose occurs with age on a multifactorial basis and osteoporosis is frequently seen due to a linear decline in bone mass after the fourth decade. The epidermis of the skin atrophies with age and due to changes in collagen and elastin the skin loses its tone and elasticity. Lean body mass declines with age and this is primarily due to loss and atrophy of muscle cells. Degenerative changes occur in many joints and this, combined with the loss of muscle mass, inhibits elderly patients' locomotion. These changes with age have important practical implications for the clinical management of elderly patients: metabolism is altered, changes in response to commonly used drugs make different drug dosages necessary and there is need for rational preventive programs of diet and exercise in an effort to delay or reverse some of these changes.
