<span>A minimum wage was developed by the federal government in all businesses engaged in interstate commerce in 1938 at 25 cents per hour and was to go to 40 cents in 7 years. No worker had to work more than 44 hours per week without getting paid for it (overtime). The second year was 42 hours and after that it was 40 hours per week, before getting overtime. This was amended in 1963 with the equal pay act that there should no difference in pay because of gender for the same work done under the same conditions.</span>

Which of these factors is the MOST important for achieving good physical fitness? A. behavior B. gender C. environment D. heredi

Kay [80]

The answer would be A, behavior. In terms of good physical health, we can control our behavior by practicing a healthy lifestyle.
People of both genders can be healthy so gender is eliminated. People can practice good health in almost any environment so that choice is eliminated. The last choice is eliminated because positive measures towards physical health can be made by all people regardless of genetics.

Hope this helps! :)
