  E) are more likely to show avoidance of stress in the future.

Question 2

Which of the following correctly depicts the control of secretion of glucocorticoids?
 
  A) central nucleus of the amygdala -> activates ACTH secretion from anterior pituitary - > PVN activation -> glucocorticoid secretion from adrenal medulla
  B) CRH secretion within the PVN -> activates ACTH release from anterior pituitary -> glucocorticoid secretion from adrenal cortex
  C) PVN activation -> CRH secretion in anterior pituitary -> ACTH secretion from anterior pituitary - > glucocorticoid secretion from adrenal cortex
  D) ACTH secretion from the PVN -> CRH release from the posterior pituitary -> glucocorticoid secretion from adrenal cortex
  E) activation of the central nucleus of the amygdala -> sympathetic activation -> adrenaline release -> glucocorticoid secretion from adrenal cortex
