Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The hippocampus and amygdala are both part of the limbic system and are known to be rich in receptors for stress hormones. The caudate nucleus, cingulated gyrus, and septal nuclei are also part of the limbic system, but there is not as much evidence for their involvement in the body's stress response. Therefore, option B is the best choice as it includes both the hippocampus and amygdala which are well-established to have stress hormone receptors.
