  D) Complete physical, mental, and social well-being interacting within the environment
  Ans: B
  Feedback:
  No one person or community is an independent entity. Each is intimately linked to the environment, frequently in ways never imagined. Thus, the environment influences health, directly and indirectly, through subtle, indirect pathways. Conversely, human activities affect the health of the environmental system. One aspect of human ecology is the study of these linkages.

  Ans: B
  Feedback:
  Bioaccumulation is the introduction of substances into ecologic food webs. Transport is generally accomplished by the way of wind patterns or aquatic system. Biomagnification is when the accumulation of a pollutant greatly exceeds the rate at which an organism eliminates it. Synergism is when a simultaneous action of separate substances or agencies together produces a greater total effect than the sum of individual effects.

  Pollutants generally exert greater influence on aquatic ecosystems than on terrestrial environments. Air pollutants can be carried by the winds; but once they fall to earth, they continue their transport along the waterways.
