changes to increase light and information.
Describe the effects of SNS activation on vision and stance selection. - ANSWER
SNS will adjust the body to receive as much information as possible to survive the
threat.
Describe how the three stages of memory relate to combat performance -
ANSWER Short term sensory store, using the perceptual senses, the STSS
receives the information and holds an image. Second one, short term memory,
analyzes and evaluates the information received and formulates a strategy based
