Explain how the body responds to stress by addressing
the following aspects of neural processing:
Identify one sensory organ that responds to external
stimuli, and indicate the exact location within the organ
where the sensory reception takes place. Identify
the location in the brain that interprets the sensations of
the sensory organ you identified.
Identify the branch of the autonomic nervous system
that responds to a stressful situation and
identify one response the sensory organ you identified
makes in response to the stress.
State two ways by which oxygen
supplies to the brain may
increase during a stress response.
How are the autonomic nervous system activity may be beneficial in short-term responses to stress, but may increase risk for cardiovascular disease over the long-term?
