Explanation:
The General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS) is the 3- stage body response to stress conditions. The three stages include
1) Alarm reaction stage
2) Resistance stage

Answer:
Option C
Explanation:
Option A is incorrect as mutations may be detrimental to the organism and are not always beneficial. Option B is incorrect as there are instances where mutations may enable organisms to be better adapted to the environment. Option D is incorrect as genotypes are not selected for or selected against by environmental pressures, it is only the phenotype (exhibitable/ visible traits) that can be selected for or against, hence option C is the answer.
