Solution

The correct option is A Health
  • Health, as defined by the World Health Organization (WHO), is "a state of complete physical, mental and social well-being and not merely the absence of disease or infirmity."
  • This definition has been subject to controversy, as it may have limited value for implementation.
  • Health may be defined as the ability to adapt and manage physical, mental and social challenges throughout life. Hence, Health is a state of physical, mental and social well being and not merely absence of disease.
So, the correct answer is 'Health'.
