A period of six months is called half a year.
A period of 25 years is commonly referred to as a "quarter-century."
An atom that accepts an electron is called reduced because it gains electrons, which leads to a reduction in its oxidation state. In a reduction-oxidation (redox) reaction, the atom that accepts electrons is undergoing reduction, not oxidation.
True. Aging can lead to changes in the function of all body systems, including the cardiovascular, respiratory, musculoskeletal, and nervous systems. These changes can include a decline in organ function, reduced capacity for physical activity, and increased risk of chronic diseases.

hibernation
The period when an organism growth and activity decreases is called dormancy. This is taught biology.
The Roman Empire's fall left Europe vunerable to the savage attacks of the Vikings and the tribes from the east. Christianity took over for some time, and then the Barbarian tribes from the east came into the west and moved the people further west-ward. After some time, the Vikings came down from the North and first attacked Lindisfarne and then the rest of the monastaries or what not. This era is called the Medieval Era and it goes on for hundreds of years.
This period if time is known as a recession.
Power-saving
That is called dormancy. During dormancy, organisms go into a state of reduced metabolic activity to conserve energy until conditions become more favorable for growth and reproduction.
Raccoons do not hibernate but during severe winter weather they will go into a period of reduced activity and sleep in their dens until conditions improve.
In catatonic stupor, motor activity may be reduced to zero.
The rabbit population will be reduced if there is a cold spring, because the rabbits won't be as active, and the food supply will be reduced. However, the activity of predators will also be reduced; so this factor will mitigate the reduction in the rabbit population somewhat.
The period of time when the economy is shrinking is called a recession. During a recession, economic activity declines, leading to reduced consumer spending, rising unemployment, and lower production levels. This phase is typically characterized by a drop in gross domestic product (GDP) for two consecutive quarters.
