The next two arise out of the fact that humans have bodies: shelter for protection and medical services for maintenance and repair of those bodies.
I see no reason to construct a hierarchy of these needs. They are all equally vital for the survival of a human being. ---
I hate to be snitty, but this just isn't true. Sex is not vital for survival. Lack of sex will not kill you. Lack of food will.
