    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stress_(biology)

    Schematic overview of the classes of stresses in plants Neurohormonal response to stress. Stress, whether physiological, biological or psychological, is an organism's response to a stressor such as an environmental condition. [1] When stressed by stimuli that alter an organism's environment, multiple systems respond across the body. [2]

    “Holidays are very stressful for many people and stress, at any time, increases hormones like epinephrine and norepinephrine, which increase the blood pressure and heart rate.”

  4. Cold and heat adaptations in humans - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_and_heat_adaptations...

    The human body always works to remain in homeostasis. One form of homeostasis is thermoregulation. Body temperature varies in every individual, but the average internal temperature is 37.0 °C (98.6 °F). [1] Sufficient stress from extreme external temperature may cause injury or death if it exceeds the ability of the body to thermoregulate.

  5. Allostatic load - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Allostatic_load

    The lower the stress levels are in the body, the less likely the allostatic load model will have a significant effect on the brain and health. Although, an increase in stress levels results in an increase in stress on the brain and the health of individuals, making it more likely for the body to have significant effects on homeostasis and cause ...

  6. Cellular stress response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cellular_stress_response

    Cellular stress response is the wide range of molecular changes that cells undergo in response to environmental stressors, including extremes of temperature, exposure to toxins, and mechanical damage. Cellular stress responses can also be caused by some viral infections. [1]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Human_body_temperature

    The body temperature of a healthy person varies during the day by about 0.5 °C (0.9 °F) with lower temperatures in the morning and higher temperatures in the late afternoon and evening, as the body's needs and activities change. [15] Other circumstances also affect the body's temperature.

  9. Heat shock response - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Heat_shock_response

    The heat shock response (HSR) is a cell stress response that increases the number of molecular chaperones to combat the negative effects on proteins caused by stressors such as increased temperatures, oxidative stress, and heavy metals. [1]
