Physical Reaction

The brain sends a biochemical message to the pituitary gland,which releases a hormone which triggers the adrenal gland to release adrenalin.

Mouth becomes dry

Neck and shoulder muscles tense- large skeletal muscles contract ready for action

Breating becomes faster and shallower,supplying more oxygen to muscles

Heart pumps faster and blood pressure rises
