2 1. A stressor is the cause of stress. Stress is the body s response to the demands of life. Page Adrenaline: a hormone that prepares the body to react. What are some reactions your body might have physically if you were facing a stressor? a-heart rate goes up b-you clench your fists c-muscles tense d-you get a stomachache *FIGHT of FLIGHT: means your body is either ready to fight and face the stressor, or flight (get away) from the stressor.

The blood has been cut off and hand will feel stiff (and this is just 30 seconds!) This can show you a similar effect when our muscles tighten with chronic stress, people end up with back aches, migraines, sore neck...) 4. Prolonged stress lowers your immune system and causes people to get sick. Page *Psychosomatic disease is a physical disorder caused by an emotional reason. Ex: stomachache caused by fear / or headache caused by stress. The Center for Disease Control has found that "Up to 90% of illness is stress-related! ( 6.
