1) Adrenal medulla 2) Can decrease kidney fxn temporarily (by / via vasoconstriction)
Answer the ff questions w/ regards to the given hormone: 1) Where is it produced? 2) What is/are its fxn/s? Given hormone: Renin
1) Kidney nephrons 2) Increases BP (by acting on angiotensinogen)
Answer the ff questions w/ regards to the given hormone: 1) Where is it produced? 2) What is/are its fxn/s? Given hormone: Angiotensin
1) Liver 2) Angiotensin II affects multiple processes and increases BP
Answer the ff questions w/ regards to the given hormone: 1) Where is it produced? 2) What is/are its fxn/s? Given hormone: Aldosterone
1) Adrenal cortex 2) Prevents loss of Na and H2O
Answer the ff questions w/ regards to the given hormone: 1) Where is it produced? 2) What is/are its fxn/s? Given hormone: Anti-diuretic hormone (vasopressin)
1) Hypothalamus (stored in the posterior pituitary) 2) Prevents H2O loss
Answer the ff questions w/ regards to the given hormone: 1) Where is it produced? 2) What is/are its fxn/s? Given hormone: Atrial natriuretic peptide
1) Heart atrium 2) Decreases BP (by acting as a vasodilator and increasing glomerular filtration rate [GFR]); decreases Na reabsorption in kidneys
