What is Stage 3 of the general adaptation syndrome?
General adaption syndrome, consisting of three stages: (1) alarm, (2) resistance, and (3) exhaustion. Alarm, fight or flight, is the immediate response of the body to 'perceived' stress.
What is Stage 1 of the general adaptation syndrome?
Alarm. The alarm reaction stage is the body's initial response to stress. This stage is also referred to as the fight-or-flight response. During this stage, the body's sympathetic nervous system is activated by the sudden release of hormones.
What is an alarm stage?
The alarm stage is when the central nervous system is awakened, causing your body's defenses to assemble. This SOS stage results in a fight-or-flight response. The resistance stage is when your body begins to repair itself and normalize heart rate, blood pressure, etc.
