Answer:

The correction option is General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS) which was promulgated by Hans Selye, MD, Ph.D.

Explanation:

According to Hans, there are 4 stages of stress namely:

   1. Alarm Reaction

Upon being stimulated by stressors, the body responds with a "fight-or-flight" response and actuates the sympathetic nervous system as the body's resources are mobilized to meet the threat or danger.

    2. Resistance

The body fights and compensates while the rest and the digestive system attempt to restore certain body systems to healthy levels as the body focuses energy toward the stressor and stays on defense.

  3. Exhaustion

If the stressor or stressors persist beyond the capability of the body, the resources become fatigued and the body becomes prone to morbidity and mortality.

Cheers!

Dennis_Churaev [7]

Answer:

In the pre-classical age (8000 B.C.E. to 600 B.C.E.) the first states developed in core civilizations. Then, powerful cities imposed their rule on surrounding areas through conquest and the first empires were born. In the classical age (600 B.C.E. to 600 C.E.) empires grew on a massive scale through territorial conquest with large armies. The growing scale of these empires, along with their increased ethnic and cultural diversity, required more sophisticated methods of governance. They served as major hubs of transregional networks of trade, and they diffused culture, religion, technologies and disease. As empires acquired massive wealth, the unequal distribution of this wealth across social classes placed enormous pressure on the political and social order. Eventually, all of the classical civilizations could not deal with the problems created by their own internal or external crises. In most cases, the belief systems spawned in these empires left enduring cultural footprints even as the empires' political structures disintegrated.

Answer:

the number of houses ≈ 8.25 million houses  

Explanation:

Given that:

A typical house in the United States uses about 10,900 kWh,

1 TWh (terawatt-hour) =1×10^6 GWh (gigawatt-hour) =1×10^9kWh (kilowatt-hour)

The three Gorges Dam in China produces about 90TWh of electricity each year. If it was to to be built in the United states, the number of houses such a plant would be able to provide the electricity for in a year is given as:

Number of houses = Amount of electricity produced in a year / amount of electricity used by each house.

Number of houses = 90 TWh /  10,900 kWh = 90 × 10⁹ kWh /  10,900 kWh = 8256881

Therefore the number of houses ≈ 8.25 million houses

He is strong because he doesn't let his suicidal thoughts cloud his desire to help the mentally ill, regardless of how powerful his thoughts might be. He is also brave, as he was willing to have such a risky operation done on him which could have gone extremely gone.
