The complete question is as follows:

Regarding the General Adaptation Syndrome, a short term response to stress in which glycogen is broken down to glucose is characteristic of the stage. 1) Alarm reaction 2) Stage of resistance 3) Stage of exhaustion

The General Adaptation Syndrome or GAS explains the pattern of responses that body experinces in response to prompted by a stressor. There are three phases of this syndrome:-

1. Alarm reaction:

Sympathetic system and Hypothalamopituitary axis activated by the stress result in reaction by body.

2. Stage of resistance:

The hormone that is releases continusoly in this stage by the zona fasciculata layer of adrenal cortex is cortisol to maintain arousal.

3. Stage of exhaustion:

In abscence of enough blood sugar or glucose in the body, the body initiates breakdown of the glycogen (stored sugar in muscles mosty) with the help of hormone known as glucagon to covert it to glucose so that it can be used by the cellular respiration.

carbohydrates: (starches and sugars) composed of carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen.

lipids: (fats, oils, and waxes) are made of carbon and hydrogen atoms.

nucleic acids: contain hydrogen, oxygen, nitrogen, carbon, and phosphorus. they are polymers of nucleotides. a nucleotide has three parts, a 5-carbon sugar, a phosphate     (-po⬇️4) group, and a nitrogenous base.

proteins: made up of nitrogen, carbon, hydrogen, and oxygen. they are polymers of amino acids.
