The two major systems involved in the stress response are the Nervous System [the Sympathetic subdivision of the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)] and the Endocrine System (glands which secrete hormones intonthe bloodstream).
The Endocrine System's response during acute and/or chronic stress (adaptation) involves first the Hypothalamic release of Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone (CRH), which stimulates the Anterior Pituitary (via the blood) to release AdrenoCorticoTropic Hormone (ACTH), which then activates the Adrenal Cortex to release glucocorticoid hormones (i.e. Cortisol), amongst others into the bloodstream. Cortisol then has many effects on tissues and organs throughout the body to allow better generalized coping with the initial stress stimulus.

Burning of wood is a chemical change as new substance is formed during the burning of wood which is not reversible.
Now, what happened during the burning of wood?
In the case of burning wood, stored potential energy( in the form of chemical energy) in the log is released due to heating by other excited atoms. This chemical reaction is called combustion that requires oxygen. We can also say that combustion is change of potential chemical energy into kinetic energy in the form of heat.
