Weathering is the process by which rocks are broken down into smaller particles as a result of physical and chemical changes that are occurring in them. There are three major types of weathering these are: physical, chemical and biological weathering.
For the question given above, the type of weathering that is occurring in the picture of the given rock is PHYSICAL WEATHERING.
Physical weathering is the type of weathering in which the affected rock is changed in size and shape by means of some agents. The broken particles are usually of the same composition as the parent rock. The agents of physical weathering include: ice, plant roots, animal activities, abrasion and exfoliation. Physically weathered rocks are usually round in shape as a result of the abrasion process which they have undergone.<span />

Answer:
Angiotensin II atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP) lowers blood pressure.
Explanation:
Increase in plasma volume leads to increase in blood pressure and a decrease in plasma level also leads to a decrease in the blood pressure. ANP is an enzyme which stimulates the decrease in blood levels through certain factors thereby causing a decrease in the blood pressure.
Meanwhile ADH stimulates increase in blood plasma levels thereby increasing the blood pressure.
