Stress on the Body-Men vs. Women In their article, Kuperman, Weiss, Dine, Staikin, Golani, Ramot, and Nahum explore how stress impacts females and males differently. The article explores a study that revealed that a receptor found in the brain controls metabolic responses triggered by stressful situations differently in female and male mice. The researchers studied the hypothalamus, which serves numerous functions, some of which involve adjusting the stressful situations, regulating energy levels and blood glucose production, and controlling hunger. When a person suffers from stress, the cells located in the hypothalamus increase the production of a receptor called CRFRI. This is the receptor that makes a significant contribution in the activation of sympathetic nerve network that serves as a stress-response. The outcome of this process includes an increase in heart rate. In this study, the researchers removed the CRFRI receptor from mice. They observed how the removal of the CRFR1 receptor would affect mice’s bodily functions. When the mice without the CRFR1 receptor were exposed to the hunger or cold, their body temperature dropped rapidly. However, the dramatic drop in…

For example, if you think a stock is going to go up, you can buy an in the money call, and as the stock rises, the intrinsic value increases as well. Thus, you benefit from the rise in the overall premium value. With a put, as the stock falls, the intrinsic value of the put rises, and so does its premium. Remember, you’re buying a put to benefit from the price drop (you’re not selling a put). The second method of speculating options is not to pay as much attention to the premium.
