Biology
1 answer:
Andru [333]3 years ago

<span>Viruses are not usually classified into conventional taxonomic groups but are usually grouped according to such properties as size, the type of nucleic acid they contain, the structure of the capsid and the number of protein subunits in it, host species, and immunological characteristics. This is because they don't fit well in any existing classification currently.</span>

Juxtaglomerular cells of the juxtaglomerular apparatus secrete _______________ when _______________.
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-D

Explanation:

In case the blood pressure drops in the body, the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney start converting the prorenin into renin. This renin converts inactive angiotensin to angiotensin I which gets converted to angiotensin II by ACE enzyme.

The angiotensin II acts as vasoconstrictor narrowing the vessels and thus increasing the blood pressure. It also stimulates the secretion of aldosterone which increases the reabsorption of sodium ions and help increase the blood pressure of the blood.

Thus, option-D is the correct answer.
