Stress is the biological response to intrinsic or extrinsic stimulus. This biological stress response involves interconnections among the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems. The two most well known stress-related biological mechanisms are:-
sympathetic arousal
activation of the hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenocortical (HPA) axis.
The biological stress response involves interconnections among the nervous, endocrine, and immune systems.
