Answer: Endorphins

Explanation: Endorphins are chemicals secreted by the brain also known as neurotransmitters that send electrical signals inside the nervous systems.

The factors that initiate the secretion of endorphins are stress and pain.

When endorphins are secreted they reduce feelings of pains, and in runners that cause a phenomenon called " Runners high" which allows runners to keep running without feeling pain or stress.

Answer:

It could be construed as assault.

Explanation:

So according to nursing practice, an assault is basically threatening to do bodily harm to a patient and it is usually not supported by any lawful justification, which can result in the offence being punishable by the state law. Another example to further define assault would be, when walking past someone and intentionally bumping into them. This can be interpreted as assault. I hope this helps.
