(a) Food is necessary for the growth and development of the body. Balanced diet provides raw materials and energy in appropriate amount needed for the substances likes protein, carbohydrates, fats, minerals etc which in turn are essential for the proper growth and functioning of the healthy body. 

(b) Health is a state of being well enough to function well physically, mentally and socially and these conditions depend upon the surrounding environmental conditions. eg., If there is unhygienic conditions in surrounding area, it is likely we might get infected or diseased. 

(c) This is so because many water borne diseases and insect vectors flourish in stagnant water which cause diseases in human beings.
