Q1Non-communicable diseases are correctly described as diseases that generally:
Non-communicable diseases are commonly long-duration conditions that do not spread directly from one person to another. Examples include heart disease, cancer, diabetes and chronic respiratory disease, so transmission control is not their central classification point.
Q2Which method best follows the participatory principle of health education?
Participation is a key principle because health behaviour changes more effectively when learners observe, discuss, practise and apply ideas. Activities such as posters, demonstrations and group discussion are therefore better than passive copying.
Q3Why is health education important for students?
Health education matters because health is multidimensional. By building healthy habits, safety awareness, self-responsibility and life skills, it contributes to physical fitness as well as mental, social and emotional development.
Q4Which diet adjustment is most suitable for a player preparing for a long-distance running event?
For endurance sports, carbohydrate availability helps maintain glycogen and blood glucose, while fluids reduce the performance loss associated with dehydration. A runner should not ignore protein, but the sports-specific emphasis is adequate carbohydrate-rich food plus hydration before and around prolonged training.
Q5In a village school, anaemia among adolescent girls persists despite weekly health talks. The PTI notes early marriage, low household income, poor menstrual hygiene facilities, and weak referral follow-up. Which interpretation best follows the determinants-of-health approach?
WHO describes health as shaped by circumstances and environment, including social and economic setting, physical environment, individual behaviours, genetics and health services. The stem deliberately gives a cluster: income and gender norms, menstrual hygiene facilities, behaviour education and referral follow-up. A single-cause answer is therefore too narrow.
