Explanation:

As epidemiology is concerned with the study of distribution and determinants of health diseases And is thus controlled by health problems in a population. It's concerned with methods of study design and descriptive-analytical studies, concerns with population use analytical data. The cause of health effects on the population at large and also includes the study on the air, water, and other industrial impacts.
