Answer to Question 1

Physical strength, coordination, and dexterity peak during the late twenties and early thirties, declining slowly throughout the rest of life. Sensory acuity is also at its peak in the early twenties. Visual acuity remains high until middle age, when people tend to become far-sighted and require glasses for reading. Hearing begins to decline somewhat by the late twenties, especially for high-pitched tones. Because they are so healthy overall, American young adults rarely die from disease, but do die from accidents. Smoking is the biggest contributor to health problems. Smoking has a significant negative impact on cognitive functioning in adults over age 50 . Smoking can damage every part of the body through cancers and chronic diseases.
