Consider option D:

  • D is correct as it accurately reflects the dynamic nature of health, which recognises that health changes over time and is influenced by both personal and environmental factors.

Other options:

  • A is incorrect as it contradicts the dynamic nature of health by suggesting health is fixed and unchanging.
  • B is incorrect as it presents a limited view of health, focusing only on disease, while the dynamic nature of health encompasses all dimensions of wellbeing.
  • C is incorrect as it suggests health is determined by only one factor (genetics), whereas the dynamic nature of health recognizes multiple influences.
