Jaundice develops when there is too much bilirubin in the blood. Bilirubin is a yellowish pigment found in hemoglobin. Hemoglobin is a protein in red blood cells that carries oxygen and gives blood its red colour. Our bodies constantly make new red blood cells. When old red blood cells break down, they release bilirubin.

Answer:social norms affect our health because we look at what other people’s bodies appear as and we usually strive to have the “ideal body type” and fit in with the rest of the people.

Health is influenced by our friends and family because if they’re always going out to eat that usually means that we are too. Sometimes with friends we might all go to the gym together and work out. If your community is healthy, then you most likely will be as well.
