            Our daily  activities  are  hampered by physical and mental illness.
            This state of disorder is known as an illness or a disease. The diseas-
            es are caused by different internal and external factors. The symp-
            toms  and preventive measures  differ according to  the disease.  We
            will  study  sexually  transmitted  diseases  and  non-comn1unicable
            diseases in this unit.

            Shushila  :  Mother,  what happened to  neighbour aunt? She is in
                           bad mood all day. She likes to stay alone. I also saw her
                            walking with difficulty.

            Mother         You're right, daughter. She is ill.
