10 Questions
What is the result when the amygdala releases too much hormone?
Fatigue and no more cortisol
What is the role of the HPA in the stress response?
Releasing cortisol and hormones to enable the body for prolonged alertness
What occurs when the stressors are too much?
A state of physical, emotional and mental exhaustion
What is the outcome of the interaction between a force and the resistance to counter that force?
Stress response
What plays a major role in the stress response?
Perception
What is the consequence of prolonged activation of the HPA axis?
Decreased cortisol levels and fatigue
Which system is responsible for secreting hormones to enable the body for prolonged alertness?
HPA axis
What is the outcome of excessive hormone release by the amygdala?
Fatigue and exhaustion
What is the role of perception in the stress response?
Perception plays a major role in the stress response
What is the state resulting from prolonged stress and exhaustion of cortisol reserves?
State of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion
Study Notes
Interaction Between Force and Resistance
- Force triggers a response to counter its effect, which involves perception playing a major role
- Locus Coeruleus, Mesolimbic, and Mesocortical pathways are activated in response to the force
Stress Response
- The Hypothalamic-Pituitary-Adrenal (HPA) axis is activated, leading to the secretion of cortisol and hormones
- These hormones enable the body for prolonged alertness in response to stressors
Consequences of Prolonged Stress
- If stressors are too intense or prolonged, it can lead to a state of physical, emotional, and mental exhaustion
- The amygdala releases too much hormone, resulting in fatigue and depletion of cortisol resources

This quiz covers the interaction between force and resistance, the body's stress response, and the consequences of prolonged stress, including the role of perception and neurophysiological pathways.
