4 0

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>

This knot of coiled capillaries, found in the kidneys, forms the filtrate. It is the __________.
stiks02 [169]

Glomerulus

The high fluid pressure inside the arteries causes the glomerulosa (capillary bed) in the glomerular capsule to produce filtrate.)

<h3>What is Glomerulus ?</h3>

Blood enters the glomerulus, a collection of small blood veins, as it enters each nephron. Smaller molecules, wastes, and fluid—mostly water—can pass through the glomerulus' thin walls and into the tubule.

  • Proteins and blood cells, which are larger molecules, remain in the blood vessel.
  • The glomerulus' primary job is to filter plasma to create glomerular filtrate, which travels the full length of the nephron tubule before converting to urine. Water, glucose, salts, and urea are all components of the glomerular filtrate.
