Respuesta :

Answer: The answer is C.

Explanation: People see all things differently. Doesn't matter about the gender. Stress involves circumstances and experiences that are perceived as threatening. To a large degree, stress is subjective and lies in the eye of the beholder. People's primary appraisals of events determine what they find stressful, and their secondary appraisals influence the degree of stress experienced.
