Answer:

The environmental factors which need to be investigated before clearing the land can involve living and non-living factors. The land clearing will remove species of animals and plants acquiring their habitat in the forest. The loss of floral species will affect the faunal species. The faunal species will extinct, decrease in number or may migrate to different locations. Therefore, complete loss of biodiversity will result.

This will also result in disturbance important cycles in nature like water, oxygen, nitrogen and carbon which will lead to disturbance of rainfall, seasonal or weather changes. Soil an important non-living factor will loose it's fertility due to soil erosion.

The correct answer is the endocrine system.

Explanation:

The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system and the endocrine system are the two prime systems that take part in the stress response.  

At the time of acute or chronic stress, the endocrine system first makes the hypothalamus to discharge CRH or corticotropin-releasing hormone into the bloodstream. The release of CRH further makes the anterior pituitary to discharge ACTH or adrenocorticotropic hormone into the blood. This further stimulates the adrenal cortex to discharge cortisol, that is, one of the glucocorticoid hormone into the bloodstream.  

The cortisol finally makes the organs and tissues present within the body to effectively cope up with the initial stress stimulus.
