Answer:

Aorta.

Explanation:

The aorta is the main artery of the body. It is a large diameter, elastic walled artery that helps stabilize blood flow. It receives oxygenated blood from the lungs, which is pumped through the left ventricle of the heart.

From the aortic curve (aortic arch) three main branches depart. They are: the arterial brachiocephalic trunk (which gives rise to the right common carotid and subclavian arteries), the left common carotid artery and the left subclavian artery.

Then the aorta descends, originating, in the thoracic and abdominal region, other branches that irrigate the organs located there. Finally, there are the terminal branches of the aorta that divide into right and left common iliac arteries.

What is meant by the term stress response?
avanturin [10]
Stress itself is caused when we have to deal with something we don't feel we are physically or emotionally able to handle and an example of a stressor could be a big test, or moving to a new city. 

How this comes into play is when we have to deal with one of these stressors, we go through a stress response commonly known as fight or flight. You act differently depending on the stressor, but you analyize the situation and then your body and mind decide if you can stay and deal with the threat or if you should leave to avoid it. If your body decides you should choose the fight method you get a big burst of energy to fight the potential threat, if flight is chosen you  will try to find the easiest and safest mode of escape.

Keep in mind that this is a very primal thing and is triggered by tons of stuff, but most of the time it is a false alarm; an example could be the test anxiety some people feel which is not an actual physical threat, but sometimes yur mind will treat it as one.
