Answer:

A. True

Explanation:

The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system <u>stabilizes blood pressure and volume</u>. The system constricts arteries and increases the amount of blood that the heart pumps, as well as the reabsorption of sodium (Na+) by the nephrons. Also, it decreases the glomerular filtration rate. All this increases blood volume and pressure.

On the other hand, ANP decreases blood volume and pressure by increasing the glomerular filtration rate and decreasing reabsorption of sodium by nephrons. Finally, this hormone inhibits the release of renin, aldosterone, and ADH.

The appropriate response is the second one. Parallel fibers emerge from granule cells in the cerebellar cortex. Granule cells are little and exceptionally various. They are thought to make up the same number of as half of the neurons in the cerebrum. Granule cells have axons which ascend and afterward fan out into parallel filaments. These filaments meet the Purkinje cell dendrites.
