Step-by-step explanation:

Dr. Hans Selye (whom we consider the father in the study of stress), back in 1935, defined it as: The adaptive response of the organism to the various stressors. Called it «General adaptation syndrome».

Selye described three stages of adaptation to stress:

• Reaction alarm: when the body detects the stressor.

• Adaptation phase: the body reacts to the stressor.

• Exhaustion phase: due to their duration or intensity they begin to exhaust body defenses.
