Answer:
The correct option is A
Explanation:
When stressed, a cascade of events occur in the endocrine system of the body. Firstly, the hypothalamus signals the pituitary gland to produce a hormone which causes the adrenal gland to increase the production of cortisol (also known as stress hormone).
This stress hormone increases the level of energy in the body by speeding up glucose production (gluconeogenesis) in the liver and making the resulting energy available throughout the body.
