Difference between Defense physiology and Stress (biology)

Defense physiology vs. Stress (biology)

Defense physiology is a term used to refer to the symphony of body function (physiology) changes which occur in response to a stress or threat. Physiological or biological stress is an organism's response to a stressor such as an environmental condition.

Similarities between Defense physiology and Stress (biology)

Defense physiology and Stress (biology) have 3 things in common (in Unionpedia): Fight-or-flight response, Hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis, Physiology.

Fight-or-flight response

The fight-or-flight response (also called hyperarousal, or the acute stress response) is a physiological reaction that occurs in response to a perceived harmful event, attack, or threat to survival.

Hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis

The hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis (HPA axis or HTPA axis) is a complex set of direct influences and feedback interactions among three components: the hypothalamus, the pituitary gland (a pea-shaped structure located below the thalamus), and the adrenal (also called "suprarenal") glands (small, conical organs on top of the kidneys).
