Answer:

Exhaustion

Step-by-step explanation:

The General Adaptation Syndrome (GAS) model is a model designed to give an explanation for biological stress. Selye argued that a particular event that stresses an organism (stressor) leads to a three-stage response. First, "alarm," which refers to a "fight-or-flight" response. Second, "resistance," which describes the body resisting and compensating while remaining alert to the stressor. Finally, the third stage is "exhaustion," which leaves the body susceptible to disease and death.
