Answer/ explanation :
Reflex response is an involuntary, automatic and rapid response to a stimulus.
It's is controlled by the brain stem.
Reflex actions cannot be controlled. They are coordinated by nerves which moves to and fro in the spinal cord without a direct involvement of the brain.
Examples of a reflex response
Sneezing, coughing, yawning, toughing a hot object, blinking of the eyes.
There are two types of reflex response
Autonomic reflex arc
The somatic reflex arc
The reflex responses happens so quickly because they do not have to be processed by the brain before taking place.

Answer:
telomere hypothesis
Explanation:
Telomere hypothesis -
Telomere -
It is the area where there are repetitive nucleotide sequence at the very end of the chromosome that does not allow the ends from fusing with the other chromosomes and even from deteriorating .
<u>according to the hypothesis , the cells have shorter DNA sequence which divide throughout the life .</u>
<u>hence , the correct term for the given statement is - telomere hypothesis . </u>
For Hypothalamo-Pituitary-Adrenal Axis of endocrine gland secretion, follow the root "CORTI" (C). This will be a great memory tool. Also, nearly all hypothalamic hormones that stimulate anterior pituitary secretion have the word RELEASING (hence "R" in their acronyms). So if asked what secretes CRH, GnRH, TRH, or GHRH... the answer will be the Hypothalamus because of the R.
Now... back to CRH... we're following the "C" for CORTI. What other endocrine hormone has C for CORTI??
ACTH = Adreno[Corti]coTropic Hormone
Which will then stimulate secretion of [Corti]sol (a glucocorticoid), amongst others from the cortex of the adrenal gland. Notice the [Corti] follows the whole pathway from Hypothalamus to adrenal Cortex: Hypothal. (CRH) --> Ant. Pituit. (ACTH) --> Adrenal Cortex (Cortisol)
Sorry this was so long-winded, but I was hoping to help you grasp a portion of how the Endocrine System works!
Good luck and hmu should you have any further Anatomy/Physiology questions.
