12 multiple choice 2 points
someone who decides to go for a brisk walk on the night before a test after having studied
may be redirecting energy in response to stress.
needs to improve his or her time management skills.
is in the resistance stage of the stress response.
will probably fail the test.

Explanation:

For question 11: An environmental stressor stems from external, physical environmental events. A hurricane is a natural environmental disaster that forces displacement, so it falls into this category. Cognitive stressors are thought-based, biological are body-related, and life situation stressors are personal life changes not tied to the physical environment.
For question 12: Physical activity like a brisk walk can serve as a healthy way to redirect and release stress-related energy. The other options are incorrect: the person already studied, so time management is not the issue; the resistance stage involves ongoing coping with a stressor, not a redirection of energy; there is no link between a pre-test walk and failing the test.

Answer:

1. an environmental stressor.
2. may be redirecting energy in response to stress.
