6 0

Answer:

The correct answer is option D.

Explanation:

The vasoconstriction or the narrowing of the blood vessels regulate the filtration rate of the glomerulus. The afferent arteriole vasoconstriction decreases the flow of blood to the glomerulus thus, decreases the filtration rate

The vasoconstriction of the efferent arteriole increases the glomerular filtration rate due to the increase in the blood level in the glomerular capillaries.

Thus, option D is the correct option.

Answer:

The correct answer will be option C- endothelial cells of the endocardium.

The pulmonary capillary bed is the network of capillaries in the lungs- alveolar region mainly where gaseous exchange takes place.

This bed receives blood from the pulmonary arteriole which arises from the pulmonary artery. The blood is pumped to this artery through the right ventricle of the heart. The right ventricle- especially the valves is lined from with the endocardium which lines it and prevents the blood from sticking to the inside of the chamber.

Therefore, the blood pumped from the right ventricle is in contact with the endothelial cells of the endocardium and option C is the correct answer.

Each of the following statements concerning the hormone atrial natriuretic peptide are true, except one, identify the exception
Mariana [72]

Answer:

The correct answer is E.

Explanation:

The main function of <u>atrial natriuretic peptide</u> (ANP) is to reduce extracellular fluid volume by increasing renal sodium excretion.

<u>Aldosterone</u> is a steroid hormone, produced by the adrenal cortex, that is part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system which helps to maintain blood pressure. Aldosterone increases reabsorption of sodium and potassium excretion, and as a result an increase in extracellular fluid volume and in blood pressure.  

In conclusion, <em>ANP reduces aldosterone secretion.</em>
