People respond differently to environmental hazards due to individual differences such as age, sex, weight, health issues, and genetic makeup.
Detailed explanation-3: -Environmental Health Sciences is a multidisciplinary field that focuses on how the environment-ranging from chemical exposures to the built environment-affects human health. People in environmental health measure exposures, determine if they harm health and develop policies to prevent injury and disease.
Detailed explanation-4: -Environmental health is the study of factors in our environment that can affect human health and disease. Environmental exposures cause hundreds of thousands of illnesses each year, including asthma and cancers.
