Question

why adrenaline gland is known as emergency hormone

Answer 1

Adrenaline is the hormone that initiates quick response in individuals to make them think and respond quickly to the stress. The hormone also increases metabolic rate and leads to dialation of blood vessels going to heart and the brain so that there is more flow of blood to these regions. Thus it helps to cope up with a stressful situation and hence called as the emergency hormone.
