Answer:

Answer is D, These definitions provide a complete definition of stress.

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that, both response-based and stimulus-based definitions are describing reactions to stress.

Stimulus-based definition characterized stress as a stimulus that causes certain reaction, while, response-based definition is the body's physiological reaction or response to any demand placed on it.
