Flushed skin, decreased muscle control, and vomiting are all incorrect answers because these symptoms could indicate an individual is having a adverse reaction to medication, food poisoning, or a serious medical condition. They do not accurately reflect physiologic manifestations of stress. Increased blood pressure, decreased blood glucose levels, and chest pain also do not accurately reflect the physiologic manifestations of stress as they are more commonly associated with other conditions such as hypertension, diabetes, or heart disease. Perspiration, increased blood glucose levels, and dilated pupils are also incorrect as they can be attributed to a variety of factors and are not specifically indicative of stress. Slow heart rate, low blood pressure, and severe headaches are also incorrect as they may be more commonly associated with physical conditions rather than stress. The best answer, A, includes symptoms that are commonly related to stress such as flushed skin, decreased muscle control, and vomiting.
