Answer:
             Cortisol and Norepinephrin are two major hormones released by body when experience stress.

If this hormone is released in excess amount it will lead to high blood pressure, a flush and round face, osteoporosis, mood swing etc. If this hormones is released in little quantity it lead to Addison's disease. Symptoms include weight loss, muscle weakness, mood changes and the darkening of regions of the skin etc.

It  causes the heart rate to increase, stored glucose(simple sugar) to be released, and increased blood flow to the muscles.
