Correct answer: "There is no difference: a preventative health behavior is a type of healthy behavior."

Explanation: Preventive health behaviors (e.g., vaccination, screening, handwashing) are a subset of healthy behaviors. Healthy behaviors more broadly include actions that promote overall well‑being (e.g., healthy eating, exercise, sleep), and many of them also have preventive effects.
