Body on Alert
Open to everyone until Wednesday, September 30
To keep it, print it while it is open.
When you feel scared, your body gets ready to run away. Your heart and breathing speed up, you sweat, and your muscles get tight.
In the picture
- Heart: pumps faster to send blood to the muscles.
- Lungs: take in air faster to supply oxygen.
- Sweat droplets: cool the skin as they appear.
- Leg muscles: tighten to help you move fast.
Examples
- Hearing a loud bang and feeling your heart pound.
- Stepping onto a stage and noticing sweaty hands and tight shoulders.
Key takeaways
- Fear triggers a fast body response that prepares you to escape.
- This response happens automatically, before you decide to move.
