Question

High blood pressure occurs when there is too much blood flowing through the blood vessels at one time. By changing the amount of water in the blood, blood pressure can change. The excretory system can help to lower blood pressure.
Which would most likely occur in the kidney?
A. More water would be transferred from the nephron.
B. Less water would be absorbed into the nephron.
C. The amount of water in the bladder would decrease.
D. The amount of water in the blood would increase.

Answer 1

Answer:

The correct answer is option A, More water would be transferred from the nephron

Explanation:

When the blood pressure is high , a large amount of blood starts flowing through the arteries. In order to reduce the blood pressure the flow of blood is to be reduced and this can be done by extracting more water from the blood when it goes for filtration into the kidney. In the kidneys, nephron filters the blood and thus they would regulate the water quantity in it to reduce the blood pressure. More water shall be retained by the nephrons which will be thrown out of the body in the form of urine.

Answer 2

The answer is d because the water naturally lowers blood pressure
