Sarah narrowly avoided a traffic accident and is experiencing rapid heart rate and other symptoms of the fight-or-flight stress response. Based on her physical and emotional state, Sarah is in which stage of the general adaptation syndrome?

Alarm

Explanation:

General adaptation syndrome (SAG) is the process that the body undergoes when it responds to stress. Be it physiological or psychological. The process consists of three steps: alarm, resistance and exhaustion.

In the alarm stage, our typical reactions are stimulated by two bodily hormones: epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) and norepinephrine (also known as norepinephrine).

Epinephrine mobilizes the release of glucose and fatty acids from fat cells. The body is able to use this hormone to respond to stress. Epinephrine and norepinephrine also have powerful effects on the heart. Both heart rate and stroke volume are increased. Thus, the heart rate of the body is increased. In this case, Sarah faced a moment of stress due to narrowly avoided a traffic accident
