Answer:

The correct answer is the endocrine system.

Explanation:

The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system and the endocrine system are the two prime systems that take part in the stress response.  

At the time of acute or chronic stress, the endocrine system first makes the hypothalamus to discharge CRH or corticotropin-releasing hormone into the bloodstream. The release of CRH further makes the anterior pituitary to discharge ACTH or adrenocorticotropic hormone into the blood. This further stimulates the adrenal cortex to discharge cortisol, that is, one of the glucocorticoid hormone into the bloodstream.  

The cortisol finally makes the organs and tissues present within the body to effectively cope up with the initial stress stimulus.

Antibodies also help to mark pathogens for destruction by the help of macrophages or neutrophils and they are known as phagocytic cells because they are highly excited to macro-molecules complexed with antibodies.

Leviafan [203]

The answer is; B

Meristem cells are totipotent meaning they can differentiate to any type of plant cells. Therefore they can produce a variety of plant type depending on epigenetic. However, tissue culture is derived from already differentiated cells. Therefore these cells are already determined and can only produce cell type of that plant from which they were derived.
