I think the answer is B, the interpretation of specific events as threatening or challenging. According to Hans Selye stress is a body's nonspecific response to any demand made on it, physical arousal to events seen as threatening, and mental arousal to events seen as challenging. However, there are effective strategies to cope with stress which include a sense of humor, relaxation, social skills, and social support.
Answer:
A. anaerobic respiration in muscle cells, forming lactic acid
Explanation:
Running marathon is a vigorous exercise, which often leads to excessive use of oxygen in the cells of the athlete. This causes the cells to switch from the aerobic (with oxygen) to the anaerobic (without oxygen) mode of respiration. This anaerobic respiration produces a product called LACTATE OR LACTIC ACID.
The lactic acid becomes excessive and gets stored in the muscle cells of the athlete. This often leads to cramps, muscle pulls etc. during the marathon. Therefore, an individual running a marathon may experience periods of oxygen deprivation that can lead to anaerobic respiration in muscle cells, forming lactic acid.
