Solution

The correct option is A Physical, emotional, behavioral, social
Reproductive health is a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity, in all matters relating to the reproductive system and to its functions and processes. In a broader term, it can be explained as that an individual can have a satisfying and safe sex life and should have the capability to reproduce.
Terms like sense organs and spatial (relating to size and distances of objects in the surrounding) are not the clauses used by the WHO in its definition of health.
