In response to sustained stress, the body goes through several stages that together constitute the general adaptation syndrome (GAS), a concept proposed by researcher Hans Selye. This GAS consists of all the following stages EXCEPT
 
  a. alarm.
 b. resistance.
 c. exhaustion.
 d. deterioration.

Question 2

When Hans Selye injected laboratory rats with saline (salty water), what happened to the rats?
 
  a. Nothing; saline is harmless and only used as a control condition
 b. Nothing; rats recover quickly from stress because they are not prone to anxiety as humans are
 c. They developed ulcers, because saline has since been discovered to have negative health consequences
  d. They developed ulcers, because stress directly affected their physiology.
