Question 1

Pain-controlling chemicals in the body are called ________.
◦ neural regulators
◦ histamines
◦ androgens
◦ endorphins

Question 2

People living under stressful conditions tend to get sick more often than they would otherwise. How do researchers in psychoneuroimmunology explain this phenomenon?
◦ The stress response reduces immune system functioning, thus making us more vulnerable to diseases.
◦ The stress response in the long run leads to a lowering of the heart rate, which makes the heart inefficient.
◦ The stress response makes muscles stronger, which places a greater burden on the heart and respiratory systems.
◦ The body tends to adapt to the constant call for the stress response and, thus, future responses are not as strong as before.

People who have myopia, or nearsightedness, are not able to see objects at a distance but only up close. It occurs when the cornea is either curved too steeply, the eye is too long, or both. This condition is progressive and worsens with time. More than 100 million people in the United States are nearsighted, but only 20% of those are born with the condition. Diet, eye exercise, drug therapy, and corrective lenses can all help manage nearsightedness.
