Does your brain become extra alert during the fight or flight response?
The fight or flight response is the hormone adrenaline so the chances are that at least some of your senses become more alert.
Does the sympathetic nervous system cause vasoconstriction?
Yep! The sympathetic nervous system causes both vasoconstriction & vasodilation. During "fight or flight" you need more O2/blood delivered to your skeletal muscles. The SNS causes vasodilation in skeletal muscles. The other organs, of the body (like digestive organs) are not needed for "fight or flight" survival. The SNS causes vasoconstriction in these organs.
What physical changes occur during flight or fight response?
Examples include the acceleration of the heartbeat, raising of blood pressure, shrinkage of the pupils of the eyes, and the redirection of blood away from the skin to muscles, brain, and the heart.
What neurotransmitter is highest in the blood during the fight or flight state?
Adrenaline (epinephrine) is a hormone released from the adrenal glands and its major action, together with noradrenaline, is to prepare the body for fight-or-flight.
What is the hormone release during fight or flight?

What organ and organ system is responsible for preparing the body for the Fight or Flight response during stressful situations?
The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system is responsible for preparing you body for the fight or flight response. The role of the hypothalamus.Combination of the brain and nervous as well as muscular and cardiovascular system. The brain initiates the process and everything becomes innate from there...the nervous system delivers the fight or flight signals, the heart beats faster and the muscles tense in order to release energy and react quicker to the organism's surroundings Adrenaline prepares your body for the fight response.
