High levels of cortisol would normally provide negative feedback to the D)the anterior pituitary and the hypothalamus.

ACTH secretion stimulates the discharge of glucocorticoids (cortisol), mineralocorticoids (aldosterone), and androgen from the adrenal cortex.

Corticotropin-liberating hormone (CRH) is launched from the hypothalamus, which stimulates the anterior pituitary to release adrenocorticotropic hormone (ACTH). ACTH then acts on its target organ, the adrenal cortex.

Cortisol increases blood sugar by way of releasing stored glucose, at the same time as insulin lowers blood sugar. Having chronically high cortisol stages can result in continual high blood sugar (hyperglycemia). this can purpose type 2 diabetes.

Why is it protective for the crayfish to have its nerve cord on the bottom of its body?
mr Goodwill [35]
The crayfish have its nerve cord on the ventral side rather than on the dorsal side. The ventral side is under the Crayfishes' exoskeleton, as opposed to the dorsal side where the exoskeleton is . If it is attacked it will be from the dorsal side and the nerve cord would be snapped easier. The function of the nerve cord is that if it gets attacked by a predator they will go for the top and it will still be able to move.
