Option 2: "of the body"

Explanation: This option is correct as it directly relates to the main idea of the text, which emphasizes the body's ability to handle physical and psychological stresses. The phrase 'of the body' encapsulates the essence of the definitions provided in the text, highlighting the physical capabilities and resilience discussed.

Option 1: "of the health"

Explanation: This option is incorrect because the phrase 'of the health' does not accurately reflect the context of the text. The text discusses the body's ability to withstand stress, which is more closely related to the physical and psychological aspects of the body rather than a general notion of health.

Option 3: "of the wellness"

Explanation: This option is incorrect because 'of the wellness' is not a commonly used phrase in this context. While wellness is related to health, the text specifically focuses on the body's capabilities, making 'of the body' a more precise choice.

Option 4: "of resilience"

Explanation: This option is incorrect as it suggests a focus on resilience alone, which is a narrower concept. The text discusses the broader ability of the body to withstand various stresses, making 'of the body' a more comprehensive and fitting choice.
