❑ Needs are things one must have or
things required to live a satisfactory
life. Humans need several essentials to
survive. They encompass both physical
and psychologic conditions needed for
human growth and development, as
well as all those things humans are
driven to attain to achieve a state of
health or well-beingMaslow's hierarchy of needs is
often portrayed in the shape of a
pyramid, with the largest, most
fundamental needs at the
bottom, and the need for selfactualization at the top.

• In other words, the idea is that
  individuals' most basic needs
  must be met before they become
  motivated to achieve higher-level
  needs.
  Physiological needs
  • Physiological needs are the base of the hierarchy.
  • These needs are the biological component for human survival.
  • To advance higher-level needs in Maslow's hierarchy,
  physiological needs must be met first. This means that if a
  person is struggling to meet their physiological needs, they are
  unwilling to seek sa
