Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Epinephrine (also known as adrenaline) is the neurotransmitter released by the sympathetic division of the nervous system during stress or danger. It is responsible for preparing the body to either fight or flee from the perceived threat. Acetylcholine and serotonin are both neurotransmitters but are not specifically associated with the "fight or flight" response. Receptor is not a neurotransmitter.
