Answer to Question 1

Answer:
Stress drains our resources, induces negative affective states, and keeps us off balance. These effects, in turn, interfere with the proper operation of our immune system by decreasing lymphocytes that fight infections and increasing levels of cortisol, which suppresses the immune system. Finally, stress influences our behaviors by making us less likely to engage in preventive behaviors, such as seeking medical care, and more likely to engage in negative behaviors, such as smoking or over-eating.
