The ALARM response
Peak concentrations of stress hormones in the bloodstream occur shortly after encountering a stressful situation. This physiological response is part of the body's fight-or-flight reaction to stress, designed to mobilize energy and resources for immediate action. The levels of stress hormones typically decline as the body's stress response subsides.

The hypothalamus is a key brain structure that initiates the physiological response to stress. It activates the body's stress response system, known as the hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal (HPA) axis, leading to the release of stress hormones like cortisol. This triggers the body's fight-or-flight response to help cope with the perceived threat.
The term combat stress refers to the psychological and physiological reactions that occur during or after combat. It is a short term response and is not a psychiatric disorder.
Sympathetic Nervous System is the part of autonomic nervous system that prepares the body for action and stress.

Deformation of matter refers to the change in shape or size of a material in response to an applied force or stress. This can occur in solids, liquids, or gases, where the material's particles rearrange or move in response to the external force. Deformation can be reversible or irreversible depending on the material and the amount of stress applied.
Sympathetic nerves: prepare the body for emergencies and stress by increasing the breathing rate, heart rate, and blood flow to muscles. These nerves become aroused as part of the fight-or-flight response, which is the body's natural reaction to real or imaginary danger.
Stress
During metamorphism, processes such as recrystallization, pressure solution, neocrystallization, and foliation can occur. Recrystallization involves the growth of new mineral grains from existing ones; pressure solution is the dissolution and precipitation of minerals in response to differential stress; neocrystallization is the formation of new minerals from the breakdown of existing ones; and foliation is the alignment of mineral grains in response to directed stress.
