Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The fight-or-flight response refers to the physiological response to stress, such as increased blood pressure and heart rate, that prepares the body to either fight off the stressor or run away from it.

Answer: C 
 The general adaptation syndrome is a three-stage model of the physiological response to stress, which includes the alarm stage (fight-or-flight response), the resistance stage (adaptation to the stressor), and the exhaustion stage (when the body's energy is depleted and physiological systems can fail).

Answer: E 
 Allostasis refers to the process of achieving stability through change or adaptation, particularly in response to stressors that challenge the body's physiological systems. This can lead to allostatic overload if the body's adaptive resources are depleted or overwhelmed by chronic stress.
