- The Sypathomedullary Pathway (SAM)
- Acute Stress arouses the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS)
- Sympathetic Nervous System
- Neurons from the SNS are sent to every organ in the body to prepare form 'Fight or Flight
- The Sympathetic Adrenal Medullary System (SAM) is activated when neurons get to the adrenal medulla
- The body reacts boosting the supply of oxygen and glucose to the brain and muscles and stopping non-emergency bodily functions
- Adrenaline

- The Sympathetic Adrenal Medullary System (SAM) is activated when neurons get to the adrenal medulla
- Noradrenaline

- Parasympathetic Nervous System
- Sends Neurotransmitters to the Adrenal Medulla to cease the adrenaline production

- Sends Neurotransmitters to the Adrenal Medulla to cease the adrenaline production
- This slows the heart beat etc and restarts non - emergency functions like digestion
