Running away from a fierce dog

Explanation:

An example of an emergency situation will be of a person fleeing away from a fierce dog. Suppose a person suddenly comes across a fierce dog. The response will be to run or flee. The body generates this response as a result of Adrenalin released by the adrenal glans up next to the kidneys. The hormone is known as the flight or fight hormone. It effects the smooth and skeletal muscles, causing the increased supply of oxygenated blood. Also, the heart beats faster to pump more blood. The pupils of the eyes dilate and vision and alertness is increases.

The predictions show a flight reaction.
