Answer:

Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis)

Explanation:

  • The three-stage process describing the physiological changes that take place in the body when it is under stress is known as general adaptation syndrome (GAS).
  • The model describing the three-stage process was given by the scientist Hans Selye.
  • According to this model, the responses in the body that occur during stress is regulated by the Hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis (HPA axis) where the brain senses the stress and then the signals travel from the hypothalamus to the pituitary and finally the body releases cortisol from adrenal glands that contributes to the various changes.

Lions also have more competition between other animals like them for example cheetahs and leopards on the other hand a mice is more independent. On period where food is scarse mice can get on with eating what the earth provides like plants lions can’t.
