10. How does Dr. Jekyll and Mr. Hyde depict health? (Hint: Please

It depicts health as social wellbeing. The ability of one of the
characters to interact with their peers, like in throwing parties or in
interacting with others. This typically corresponds to physiological
health, in that paleness or dwarfism are considered to be negative
qualities, but it is very much a social construct as well.
