Answer to Question 1

THERE IS NO FIXED DEFINITION OF STRESS. STRESS IS ALSO A RELATIVE MEASURE; WHAT IS HIGH STRESS TO ONE PERSON IS LOW OR MODERATE STRESS TO ANOTHER.

Answer to Question 2

IT IS VERY DIFFICULT TO DEFINE WHAT IS MEANT BY INTELLIGENCE. IT IS DIFFICULT TO MEASURE SOMETHING IF YOU CAN'T EVEN AGREE ON WHAT IT IS YOU ARE TRYING TO MEASURE.
