Ricky and lucy have different styles of coping with stress. ricky becomes hyperalert and wants to take immediate action to fix a problem or to get away from it. scientists compare his reaction to a "fight or flight" response. lucy does not usually exhibit this type of response. instead, she prefers to talk about problems with her best chum, ethel. which neurotransmitter would you associate with lucy's behavior?

The neurotransmitter that could be associated with Lucy’s behavior is oxytocin. The Oxytocin is a hormone that plays an important part to a female’s reproductive system as it functions particularly when a female breast feeds and through one’s child birth.
