(N/A) community refers to a group of organisms of different species that interact with each other and their environment within a common habitat.
Our personal health is deeply connected to community issues because:
$1$. We live in a society where we share resources like water,air,and food. If the community environment is not clean,it leads to the spread of diseases (e.g.,improper waste disposal leads to vector-borne diseases).
$2$. Public hygiene and sanitation are community responsibilities. Even if an individual maintains personal hygiene,they can still fall ill if the surrounding community environment is polluted or unhygienic.
$3$. Therefore,both personal health and community health are interdependent; a healthy community environment is essential for maintaining individual well-being.
