    Stress management

    Week-2 Assignment

    1. While triggering the HPA Axis, the hypothalamus releases a hormone called-

    a. AdrenoCorticoTropic Hormone
    b. Corticotrophin Hormone
    c. Norepinephrine
    d. Glucocorticoids

    Explanation: When one experiences a stressful event, the hypothalamus releases a


    hormone called the Corticotrophin Hormone (CRH).

    2. Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder is an

    a. Stress Disorders
    b. Anxiety Disorder

    Explanation: Obsessive-Compulsive Disorder (OCD) is an anxiety disorder and is characterized


    by recurrent, unwanted thoughts (obsessions) and/or repetitive behaviors that make them feel
    driven to do something repetitively (compulsions). Repetitive behaviors, such as hand washing,
    checking on things, or cleaning, can significantly interfere with a person’s daily activities and
    social interactions.

    3. Stress Is a common factor for -

    a. Apert syndrome
    b. Irritable Bowel Syndrome
    c. Down syndrome.
    d. Angelman syndrome

    Explanation: For most people, IBS is a chronic condition, although there will likely be times
    when the signs and symptoms are worse and times when they improve or even disappear
    completely
    4. The adrenal gland is divided into-

    a. Adrenal cortex, Adrenal Medulla


    b. Medulla cortex, cortex medulla
    c. Medulla gland, adrenal medulla
    d. Adrenal cortex, medulla cortex
    Explanation: The adrenal gland is located at the top of each kidney; therefore, each person has
    two Adrenal glands. It is divided into 2 parts: The Adrenal cortex: mineralocorticoids,
    glucocorticoids, gonadocorticoids. Adrenal Medulla: epinephrine, norepinephrine

    5. ___________is like a command centre that communicates with the rest of the body through
    the Autonomic Nervous System.

    a. Thalamus
    b. Hypothalamus
    c. Adrenal gland
    d. Adrenal Medulla

    Explanation: Hypothalamus is like a command center. It communicates with the rest of the body
    through the Autonomic Nervous System.

    6. The hormone released by the adrenal glands allows the body to make energy more readily
    available from the stored nutrients

    a. ACTH
    b. Cortisol
    c. Epinephrine
    d. Norepinephrine

    Explanation: Cortisol levels can become imbalanced during the different stages of adrenal
    fatigue Cortisol levels largely depend on which stage of the condition you have reached. In the
    early stages of Adrenal Fatigue, cortisol levels are likely to be elevated, along with epinephrine
    and norepinephrine. In the later stages of Adrenal Fatigue, cortisol levels will be much, much
    lower.

    7. Cushing’s syndrome is a disorder due to -

    a. Hyper-cortisolism
    b. Gluco-corticoism
    c. Mineralo-corticolism
    d. Gonado-corticolism

    Explanation: Cushing’s syndrome -This condition is sometimes known as hyper-cortisolismand


    is recognized through excessively high levels of cortisol.
    8. CRH stands for-

    a. Corticotropin Hormone
    b. Corticotrophin Hormone
    c. Centrotrophic Hormone
    d. Cerebral hormone

    Explanation: The hypothalamus releases a hormone called the Corticotrophin Hormone

    9. What are the hypothalamus, pituitary gland, and adrenal glands part of the___________?

    a. Endocrine System
    b. Nervous system
    c. Immune system
    d. None of the above

    Explanation: When the body is stressed, the hypothalamus signals the autonomic nervous
    system and the pituitary gland, and the process is started to produce epinephrine and cortisol,
    sometimes called the "stress hormones."

    10. Fight or flight reactions causes the activation of-

    a. Parathyroid glands, leading to an increased metabolic rate


    b. Adrenal medulla leading to increased secretion of epinephrine and norepinephrine
    c. Pancreas leading to a reduction in the blood sugar levels
    d. Kidney, causing suppression of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone pathway

    Explanation: fight-or-flight response. This physical arousal is stimulated through the release of
    hormones epinephrine (adrenaline) and norepinephrine (noradrenaline).
