Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

During the exhaustion stage of the general adaptation syndrome, the body's resources are depleted, and it can no longer maintain normal function. At this point, the body has typically tried to cope with the stressor through the alarm and resistance stages. If the stressor persists and the body cannot cope, it may lead to exhaustion. In some cases, individuals might escape the stressor (either by removing the stressor or removing themselves from the situation), which is a form of coping or adaptation at this stage. Choices A, B, and D describe aspects more characteristic of the earlier stages of the general adaptation syndrome, not the exhaustion stage.
