Answer:

By increasing blood glucose, fatty acid, and amino acid levels

Explanation:

Cortisol, corticosterone, and cortisone are the glucocorticoids released by the adrenal cortex and serve to impart resistance to stress. These hormones stimulate protein breakdown (mainly in muscle cells), gluconeogenesis and lipolysis and thereby increase the concentration of amino acids, glucose and fatty acids in blood.

The amino acids are used by cells for synthesis of new proteins or for synthesis of ATP. Glucose is also used by cells to produce ATPs.

Glucocorticorticoids increase the sensitivity of blood vessels for hormones which in turn stimulate their constriction. The vasoconstriction raises blood pressure. The process of vasoconstriction resumes the normal range of blood pressure which is otherwise dropped by some emergency conditions such as injury and severe loss of blood.

This type of water transition or change in phase of matter is known as FREEZING.

Water has molecules that are free flowing and have the ability to collide and bounce against each other, that's why it has that kind of characteristic that it takes the shape of its container.

When these molecules are exposed to lower or colder temperatures, the molecules tend to vibrate and get attracted towards each other, creating a semi-solid or completely solid material. In this example, liquid turned into frost because of the low temperature present within the environment.

Chemical: Chemical energy is the potential of a chemical substance to undergo a transformation through a chemical reaction to transform other chemical substances.

Nuclear: Nuclear energy comes from splitting atoms in a reactor to heat water into steam, turn a turbine and generate electricity.

Kinetic: Kinetic energy is the energy of motion. An object that has motion - whether it is vertical or horizontal motion - has kinetic energy.

It would be awesome if you marked brainliest! :)
