A firefighter wakes up in the middle of the night to the sound of an alarm. it is likely that her adrenal glands have released epinephrine and norepinephrine.

The medulla of the adrenal glands secrete the hormone epinephrine, which is also known as adrenaline. Epinephrine is released into the bloodstreams when a person experiences strong fight or flight emotions. This leads to an increase in the rate of the heart beat, muscle contraction and movement.
