Answer: Stage 1 of the GAS, which is alarm reaction.

Explanation:

We all undergo stressful times at some point in our lives like when we have lost a loved one, lost a job and facing financial issues such as Anders.

This is the moment in which our body needs to adapt in order to survive the stressors.

What is general adaptation syndrome?

GAS refers to the three stage that we physiological go through when we are facing a stressful situation.

1. Alarm reaction stage

In alarm reaction stage we begin to experience the first signs of stress.

Now this is when out fight or flight response starts to kick in , under which our body will tell us whether we need to fight against the stressor or we need to run for our lives

A stress hormone is released as our heart rate speeds faster.

2. Resistance is the recovery stage after the initial shock in stage one this would be a stage in which Anders body will try to restore his initial normal self and maintain balance. It will bring down the blood pressure eventhough the body may still remain alert.

If the balance is never reached and the stress continues for a long time such that it becomes a chronic issue ,the body fails to regain its initial strength he will proceed to the 3.exhaustion stage when the body has failed to fight. This is a serious stage in which a person may begin to suffer from depression and anxiety.

Which statement is true about the script of a play? /&gt; A. It is a list of characters. B. It focuses on set and prop design. C
DanielleElmas [232]

Answer: The right statement is the D) It may be divided into acts and scenes.

Explanation: Just to elaborate a little on the answer, it can be added that the script of a play is the text, in written, that is going to be spoken or said in a play. It includes the names of the characters, but it is not properly a list of them. In addition, it may include explanations and indications about certain design elements—the specific atmosphere of a place, for instance—but that is not its main purpose. However, for the sake of organization and easy reference, it may divided into acts and scenes, each one of them including a specific portion of the written text.
