The function of ANP is antagonistic to the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone-system.

Biology
1 answer:
Rzqust [24]4 years ago
4 0

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.

Lucy lab tech is to administer a glucose tolerance test on Mrs. Sweet. Mrs. Sweet is a fairly large lady weighing 330 pounds. Th
grin007 [14]

Answer:

10.12 oz

Explanation:

Since Mrs. Sweet weighs outside the 100-220 pounds, she will receive a dosage of 2 ml/kg. Her weight is 330 pounds.

<em>1 pound = 0.453592 kg</em>

330 pounds = 330 x 0.453592 = 149.685 kg

2 mL of glucola is required for 1 kg of weight. Hence 149.685 kg would require;

                    2 x 149.685 = 299.37 mL

<em>1 oz. of glucola is equivalent to 29.5735 mL. Hence 299.37 mL would be equivalent to,</em>

                       299.37/29.5735 = 10.12 oz. of glucola

<em>Lucy should therefore give Mrs. Sweet </em><em>10.12 ounces of glucola</em><em>.</em>
