  We consider properties of one-dimensional diffusive dichotomous flow and
discuss effects of resonant activation in the presence of statistically
independent random resetting mechanism. Resonant activation and stochastic
resetting are two similar effects, as both of them can optimize the noise
induced escape. Our studies show completely different origins of optimization
in adapted setups. Efficiency of stochastic resetting relies on elimination of
suboptimal trajectories while resonant activation is associated with matching
of time scales in the dynamic environment. Consequently, both effects can be
easily tracked by studying their asymptotic properties. Finally, stochastic
resetting cannot be easily used to further optimization of the resonant
activation in symmetric setups.
