According to Selye's theory of stress, during the condition of the stress, the body undergoes the general adaptation syndrome, which occurs in three stages. These three stages are fight or flight, resistance reaction, and exhaustion.

The flight or fight reaction is stimulated by the hypothalamus. It results in the excitement of the sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system. The resistance reaction is caused by the hormones released by the hypothalamus; this is long lasting and provides ATP (adenosine triphosphate) molecules for the counter reaction to the stress.  

As the result of use of ATP and other energy resource from body during the resistance reaction, the body becomes deprived of energy. This causes the exhaustion in the body.  

So, the resistance phase of the stress expands a considerable amount of energy, which causes exhaustion.

Answer:

Biological evolution

Explanation:

<em>Biological evolution is defined as the formation of complex organisms from single ancestral type over a large time period. Evolution believes that all living organisms descended from a common ancestor but not without modification.</em>

There are several evidence to support the theory of evolution including morphological evidence, paleontological evidence, biochemical evidence, among others.

The similarity in the structure and components of DNA of all living organisms is one of the evidence pointing to the fact that living organisms might truly have been from a common ancestor. In addition, all living organisms tend to use ATP largely as their source of energy, giving further credence to evolution theory.
