Chapter One: The Concept of Stress Adaptation 1. How are the body’s physiological defenses affected when under sustained stress? Why?

For example‚ the hypothalamus responds to sustained stress by stimulating the pituitary gland to release a number of different hormones such as adrenocorticotropic hormone‚ vasopressin‚ growth hormone‚ thyrotropic hormone‚ and gonadotropins. As a result of the release of these

Whales are aquatic (lives in the ocean) mammals that require certain adaptations in order to survive. They have a blow whole on top of their heads and a pair of lungs for breathing fresh air. In order to take a fresh breath whales need to emerge out of the water exposing the blow whole on top of their heads completely.

A testament to the perfect adaptation techniques of sharks‚ they have survived many mass extinctions‚ including the extinction that whipped out the dinosaurs. This great adaptation of the sharks has resulted in them becoming an apex predator of the ocean‚ i.e. being at the top of the food chain. Although Great Whites are widely distributed in the global

Countless species engage in group living‚ either in herds‚ colonies‚ harems‚ complex societies or loose associations. But perhaps the simplest
