Answer:

The correct option is F) Increased blood glucose levels

Explanation:

The release of glucocorticoids into the body is part of the body's chemical process for managing stress and ultimately prepares the body for fight or flight.

The body anticipates that it may consume additional fuel/energy during elevated stress levels, it therefore through the adrenal cortex which is situated above the kidneys, sends glucocorticoids into the body.

The glucocorticoids trigger the body's metabolism with regard to breaking down stored fuel in order to produce the required energy that it needs.

Cheers!

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Letting the leaves of the plant deprived from light for 48 hours will be forced to use its reserved starch making the storage of the starch decrease.
