Answer:

The fight-or-flight response (also known as the acute stress response), refers to a physiological reaction that occurs when we are in the presence of something that is mentally or physically terrifying.

The fight-or-flight response is triggered by the release of hormones that prepare your body to either stay and deal with a threat or to run away to safety.

For example, you may yell at your partner for pushing you into agreeing to speak at a conference when you don't feel ready (fight).
