  12. Heart Disease The UK has one of the highest death rates for heart disease in the world. Look at the data below, which shows death rate from heart disease (per 100 000) in 2003. Which parts of the UK were the healthiest and unhealthiest for heart disease? Describe two patterns shown by this data. Use your IT skills to draw bar charts to show this data for men and women. Select the area you live in. If the town you live in had a population of 50 000, how many men and women would have died of heart disease in 2003?

Explain your answer.
