B. immune system compensation.

C. cultural factors.

D. anatomic characteristics.

Answer:

Protection against the harmful effects of stress is primarily a result of physiologic reserve.

Physiologic reserve is the amount of energy saved by the various organs and biological systems at the time of birth. The reserve energy decreases every time we avoid taking food and energy giving nutrients.

As we all know we need energy to do work and energy is obtained from food we eat.

The cells in our body die or deteriorate with different rates with advancing age.

The most common source of energy is carbohydrates and fats.

The immediate source of energy is glucose.

The excess of glucose is converted in to glycogen and is stored in muscles and liver by the process called glycogenesis.
