User: Discuss the factors that cause or influence teenagers to engage in each of these types it risk behaviour identified above

Weegy: Heart disease isn't a major killers of teenagers, but the risk is still there. Certain risk factors can increase a teenager's chance of developing heart disease. [ [ According to the Texas Heart Institute, most of the heart disease risk factors that affect teenagers can be controlled and, if controlled, can help to prevent them from developing heart disease as teenagers as well as adults.Teenagers with high blood pressure have an increased risk of developing heart disease. In teenagers, high blood pressure is considered serious. However, according to the Texas Heart Institute, fewer than 3 percent of U.S. children suffer from high blood pressure. Teenage high blood pressure can be caused by genetics or by certain lifestyle habits such as a sedentary lifestyle, high salt intake and being overweight or obese. Making healthy lifestyle changes such as regular exercise, consuming a healthy, well-balanced diet and losing excess weight can help to lower a teenager's blood pressure and his risk of developing heart disease. ] ]

Teenagers are influenced to engage in alcohol and marijuana use by a combination of factors, including peer pressure, parental influence, personal beliefs, emotional coping mechanisms, and the availability of substances in their environment.
