The correct answer is option "C. Emotions are feelings that are triggered by thoughts or events."
Explanation:
Emotions are feelings that can be triggered by thoughts because emotion on its own is a response. Emotions can show feelings which could also be the product of thoughts. For example, the thought of one passing an exam could trigger an emotional feeling if the goal is achieved, which is evident when one is happy. That emotion could also turn to an emotional feeling of sadness if one fails the exam. Two individuals having the same feeling about something could have different emotions because their thoughts are different. Emotions might be different for similar situations and emotions could also be triggered by reflexes. For example, a child that sees a snake and reacted emotionally whether positively or negatively.
Emotions could also be triggered by events either positively or negatively. Someone could lose control of his or her emotions by reacting to events with feelings like depression, suicidal thoughts.

After an exercise, the brain produces endorphins, a type of neurotransmitters, and the levels of stress hormone such as cortisol are reduced. Endorphins are a body’s natural painkillers and are mood elevators. Exercise also improves fitness by reducing accumulated fats in the body hence improving blood circulation in the body. Improved blood circulation enables nutrients and oxygen to reach tissues hence muscle fitness.
