The correct answer is d. o<span>lder people keep stress hormones in their system longer.

The physiological response to stress in our body involves the release of stress hormones such as cortisol. Individuals of all ages release cortisol as a response to stress. However, in older individuals cortisol and other stress hormone levels remain for longer in their system compared to younger individuals. Due to this older individuals are more likely to be negatively affected by the effects of cortisol in stressful situations such as increased heart rate, increased blood pressure and blood sugar levels. </span>

If you are driving at the speed limit and another driver sounds his horn and starts to pass, you should -
lana66690 [7]

Answer:

a. Slow down and allow him to pass

Explanation:

Since you are driving at the speed limit, you can not speed up to get out of his way. The other driver has more speed limit, and hence, he wants to pass you. If you slow down your speed he can pass and a possible accident could be avoided. Refusal to allow pass results, in most cases, a sense of jealous competition, which also could result in a fatal accident, or blowing to warn also could be irritating for another driver, who could take it as umbrage and will drive even faster in pursuit. A judicious decision is to slow down your car and allow him to pass.
