Answer to Question 1

C
Eustress is stress that results in positive outcomes.

Answer to Question 2

C
The stage of adaptation or resistance (also known as fight-or-flight response) stimulates body defenses against the stressor. If the body's adaptive energy is inadequate to cope with prolonged or overwhelming stress, the stage of exhaustion occurs. These stages and physiologic responses occur whether the stressor is actual, potential, or only imagined.
