An example of homeostasis is blood sugar level. When the blood sugar level is very high, the pancreas produces insulin, and insulin tells the cells to take the glucose and use it. If cells need energy, they make the cell respiration and produce energy. If they don't need it, they convert it into glucogene or fat and store it. On the contrary, when the blood sugar level is very low, pancreas produce glucagon, which tells cells the opposite: make glucose appear! So if they don't have glucose, they convert glucagon or fat into glucose and release it into the blood.

The first step leading to angiotensin II production is the secretion of what by the kidneys? Multiple Choice Calcitriol Angioten

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

The correct answer is "Renin".

Explanation:

The secretion of the enzyme renin by the kidney is one mechanism used by the kidneys for blood pressure regulation. The secretion of renin is the first step leading to angiotensin II production, in what is known as the renin–angiotensin system (RAS). Renin catalyzes the conversion of angiotensinogen to angiotensin I, which is subsequently converted to angiotensin II by the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE).
