Question 1 of 5
A nurse is teaching a class about the general adaptive syndrome. The nurse should include that which of the following manifestations occurs during the exhaustion stage?
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: During the exhaustion stage of the general adaptive syndrome, the body's resources are depleted from prolonged stress. Depression is a common manifestation during this stage due to the overwhelming and prolonged stress response. Blood glucose levels do not return to the expected range; they may be low due to the depletion of energy reserves. Blood pressure typically decreases as the body struggles to maintain homeostasis. Dilation of pupils is more associated with the fight-or-flight response in the alarm stage.
Therefore, the correct answer is C (Depression) as it aligns with the physiological and psychological impact of the exhaustion stage.
