Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Stress is a response to a perceived threat or challenge. It is not necessarily the event itself, but rather how an individual perceives and responds to the event. This response can be psychological, biological, or behavioral. Therefore, option D is the best choice as it includes the notion of a stimulus or event that we respond to because we perceive it as threatening or challenging.
