Answer to Question 1

D
Selye defined the concept of stress as a nonspecific response to any demand made on the body. These demands, called stressors, can be situations, events, or agents that create stress for the individual.

Answer to Question 2

102.6 degrees Fahrenheit = 102.6/1.8 = 39.2 degrees Celsius
