Physiological Needs

Physiological Needs

Physiological needs refer to the basic needs required for human survival, such as food, water, air, shelter, sleep, and warmth. These needs are essential for maintaining life and are the foundation for all other levels of Maslow's hierarchy of needs. Without satisfying these basic needs, an individual cannot move on to higher levels of the pyramid.

Food and water are two of the most important physiological needs that must be met for survival. Hunger and thirst can have a profound impact on an individual's physical and mental health, leading to malnourishment, dehydration, and even death.

Maslow's Hierarchy of Needs is a psychological theory proposed by Abraham Maslow in 1943, which describes the basic needs that motivate human behavior. Maslow proposed that human needs could be arranged into a hierarchical order, with the most basic physiological needs at the bottom of the hierarchy and the most complex needs for self-actualization at the top. This theory has been widely applied in various fields, including psychology, education, business, and personal development.
