Optiosn are not provided in the question. The complete question s as following:
The most recent blood work of a client with a diagnosis of heart failure indicates increased levels of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP). What are the most likely effects of these peptides on the patient's physiology?
A. Water retention
B. Increased tubular sodium reabsorption
C. Counteracting the effects of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system
D. Sympathetic nervous stimulation
Answer:
C. Counteracting the effects of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system
Explanation:
Atrial and ventricular volume / pressure expansion trigger the production of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) which are endogenously produced peptides.
The ANP and BNP plasma levels increase according to the extent of the heart failure. Myocardial stretching is a key factor in stimulating ANP and BNP secretion, while neurohumoral factors also play a role in the secretion process.
Natriuresis, Vasodilatation and activation of renin-angiotensin-aldosterone (RAA) and sympathetic nervous systems are the main physiological effects of ANP and BNP; both of which are expected to prevent the development of heart failure.
Hence, the correct option is C.
The graph that best shows the general relationship between the temperature of a gas and the speed of the molecules in that gas is B.
<h3>What is kinetic energy?</h3>
Kinetic energy is the energy that an object or particle has as a result of its motion. When work transferring energy, is done on an object by applying a net force, the object accelerates and goes under kinetic energy.
The missing graphs are attached as image.
The average kinetic energy of gas molecules is
K∝T
So as per above equation, K-T graph is a straight line having a finite slope and passing through the origin.
Thus, option B is correct.

Answer:to stop from extinction
Explanation:
Answer:
Regulation of intake is governed by thirst receptors that pick up signals of dehydration and return the body to a rehydrated state.
Explanation:
The state of hydration in someone's body is given by the plasma osmolarity values (the ratio of solutes to water in blood plasma). After regular activities that involve the loss of water, such as urination and sweating, happen, the blood begins to concentrate and the osmoreceptors located in the hypothalamus are triggered to generate a response that leads to water intake.
