The Physiological Mechanisms of Adaptation to the Environment Factors

Abstract

Of particular concern at present is air pollution which is one of the most important components of the natural environment. Studies of the relationship between the state of public health and the impact of various factors, find that environmental pollution has a significant adverse effect on public health. Under the influence of environmental factors, adverse effects develop in the state of public health, this is manifested in an increase in mortality, morbidity and deterioration of physical development. Environmental factors play a major role in the health status of the population in whole and especially of individual age groups, as individual groups and categories of the population have different sensitivity to the influence of adverse factors and the role of the same factors is significantly different. Environmental pollution (air, water, food) causes the body's constant efforts to adapt to damaging effects. A deep violation of adaptation can lead to the occurrence of diseases, disruptions in educational and professional activities, antisocial actions.
