Describe the continuous nature of the physical fitness concept?
Rudiy27
<span>Physical fitness is something that constantly needs to be worked on to maintain or improve it. Thus, it has a continuous nature. Think of running a mile. If you train for weeks, you can achieve a faster time. Once you attain the goal mile time that you want, you still have to keep training to further maintain it. However, if you stop running, the time it takes to run a mile will increase, and your physical fitness will decrease. This shows the concept of physical fitness as continuous, because to maintain or improve it, you must continue training.</span>

Why waste can hurt animals and people
Zina [86]

According to wikipedia, <em>"Waste are unwanted or unusable materials. Waste is any substance which is discarded after primary use, or is worthless, defective and of no use. Examples include municipal solid waste, hazardous waste, wastewater, radioactive waste, and others."  </em>Assuming what you are asking is how can our garbage affect our environment, you're answer is not one singular sentence.

The answer would be something along the lines of this: The waste produced by what we consume and throw away  can harm people and animals alike due to factors like plastic not being biodegradable, plastic that then pollutes our water, land, and even our air if burnt. Animals can easily consume waste and become ill or be trapped in it and become injured. Overall, our waste management and consumptions of plastic need to change to prevent harm to us by the poisoning, damaging, and crowding that we currently inflict on ourselves and other creatures. Adding to this, our management of biological and hazardous waste is well under control. If there were a breach in this there would be no clean water nearby, no safe meat to eat if animals consume the waste or contaminated water/plants. And the crops would likely die.

Hope this was helpful! don't forget to say thank you or give brainiest if you feel generous! :)
