Abstract
The term stress can be broadly construed, with some forms constituting an essential part of developmental processes and others representing potentially harmful changes in the environment. How an organism deals with stress is also varied and can develop on various times scales, from milliseconds, as in rapid homeostatic responses, to evolutionary time, as in the adaptation of an organism to a new environment.
