Answer:  The correct answer is :  Cristopher Simmons was sentenced to death when he was 17 in 1993. Several appeals were made until 2002 but all were rejected, in this year the Supreme Court of Missouri suspended the execution of Simmons. The United States Supreme Court ruled that executing the mentally handicapped violated the prohibitions of the eighth and fourteenth amendments. Because of this in Missouri it was decided to reconsider the Simmons case. The Missouri court invalidated the decision taken in 1989 in the Stanford v. Kentucky as it claimed that the execution of minors was not unconstitutional and it was concluded that it was cruel and unusual.

laila [671]

Answer:

resistance stage

Explanation:

General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS) is the process developed by Hans Selye.

GAS is a process divided into three stages of physiological changes. Selye developed this theory while experimenting on rats. The rats were put under stressful situations after which physical changes occur in them.

The stages in GAS are:

  1. Alarm reaction stage
  2. Resistance stage
  3. Exhaustion stage

In the Resistance stage, the levels of endocrine, hormones, heart rate, and blood pressure is comparatively low from the first stage of GAS i.e. alarm reaction stage. <u>In this stage, heart rate and blood pressure starts becoming normal but still not normal. </u>

So, the correct answer is the Resistance stage.
