Describe the stages of Selye's General Adaptation Syndrome -
correct answer 1. Alarm Stage

,In this phase, the initial reaction of the body to stress is that it
labels the stressor as a threat or danger to balance,that is why it
immediately activates its fight or flight response system, and
releases the "stress" hormones such as adrenaline, noradrenaline
and cortisol. These hormones enable you to perform activities
that you don't usually do.


2. Resistance Stage


After the body has responded to the stressor, it is more likely that
the stress level has been eradicated, or simply reduced. What
happens next to the fight or flight response is that you body's
defences become weaker, as it needs to allocate energy to the
repair of damaged muscle tissues and lower the production of
the stress hormones.


3. Exhaustion Stage


During this phase, the stress has been persistent for a longer
period. The body starts to lose its ability to combat the stressors
and reduce their harmful impact because the adaptive energy is
all drained out. The exhaustion stage can be referred to as the
gate towards burnout or stress overload, which can lead to
health problems if not resolved immediately.

Histamine - correct answer Increases the permeability of the
capillaries to white blood cells and some proteins, to allow them
to engage pathogens in the infected tissues.


Protaglandins - correct answer relaxation of smooth muscle, the
dilation and constriction of blood vessels, control of blood
pressure, and modulation of inflammation ation


Complement - correct answer a part of the immune system that
enhances (complements) the ability of antibodies and phagocytic
cells to clear microbes and damaged cells from an organism,
promotes inflammation, and attacks the pathogen's plasma
membrane.


Local inflammatory response - correct answer redness, heat,
swelling, pain, loss of function


Systemic Inflammatory Response Syndrome (SIRS) - correct
answer malaise, fatigue, headache, anorexia


What are the common complications of healing - correct answer
