The correct Answer is:
To analyze the statements provided in the question, we will break down each statement and evaluate its correctness step by step. ### Step 1: Evaluate Statement I **Statement I**: Erythropoietin is produced from the JG cells of the kidney in response to high blood volume. - **Explanation**: Erythropoietin (EPO) is a hormone primarily produced by interstitial cells in the kidneys, not by the juxtaglomerular (JG) cells. JG cells are responsible for the production of renin, an enzyme that helps regulate blood pressure and fluid balance. EPO is produced in response to low oxygen levels (hypoxia) in the blood, not high blood volume. Therefore, this statement is incorrect. ### Step 2: Evaluate Statement II **Statement II**: Erythropoietin stimulates erythroclasia. - **Explanation**: Erythropoietin's primary function is to stimulate the production of red blood cells (RBCs) in the bone marrow, not to stimulate erythroclasia, which refers to the destruction or breakdown of red blood cells. Therefore, this statement is also incorrect. ### Conclusion Both statements are incorrect. ### Final Answer The correct option is that both Statement I and Statement II are wrong. ---
