Query: Evolution of adaptation mechanisms: adaptation energy, stress, and
  oscillating death   In 1938, H. Selye proposed the notion of adaptation energy and published
"Experimental evidence supporting the conception of adaptation energy".
Adaptation of an animal to different factors appears as the spending of one
resource. Adaptation energy is a hypothetical extensive quantity spent for
adaptation. This term causes much debate when one takes it literally, as a
physical quantity, i.e. a sort of energy. The controversial points of view
impede the systematic use of the notion of adaptation energy despite
experimental evidence. Nevertheless, the response to many harmful factors often
has general non-specific form and we suggest that the mechanisms of
physiological adaptation admit a very general and nonspecific description.
  We aim to demonstrate that Selye's adaptation energy is the cornerstone of
the top-down approach to modelling of non-specific adaptation processes. We
analyse Selye's axioms of adaptation energy together with Goldstone's
modifications and propose a series of models for interpretation of these
axioms. {\em Adaptation energy is considered as an internal coordinate on the
`dominant path' in the model of adaptation}. The phenomena of `oscillating
death' and `oscillating remission' are predicted on the base of the dynamical
models of adaptation. Natural selection plays a key role in the evolution of
mechanisms of physiological adaptation. We use the fitness optimization
approach to study of the distribution of resources for neutralization of
harmful factors, during adaptation to a multifactor environment, and analyse
the optimal strategies for different systems of factors.
