Top Stress Flashcards

Stress is a biology term and there are two types of stress: Physiological Stress or Biological Stress, and both are an organism's response to a stressor such as an environmental condition or a stimulus. Stress is a body's method of reacting to a challenge. According to the stressful event, the body's way to respond to stress is by sympathetic nervous system activation which results in the fight-or-flight response.

Owing to the fact that the body cannot keep this state for long periods of time, the parasympathetic system returns the body's physiological conditions to normal (homeostasis). In humans, stress typically describes a negative condition or a positive condition that can have an impact on a person's mental and physical well-being. Have you ever been stressed out? Do you know what stress can do to one's body and how you can prevent yourself from getting too stressed out? Educate yourself with these informational stress-free flashcards!
