[A] : The hormone aldosterone is secreted by adrenal cortex after the low Na^+ content in blood and the resultant low BP causes the kidney to release renin. [R]: Renin in blood leads to the formation of angiotensin II which causes adrenel cortex to release aldosterone that causes kidney to re- tain Na^+ and, therefore, water is reabsorbed and BP rises.

Which of the following is not a function of angiotensin ll?

In RAAS mechanism of kidney regulation , angiotensin II increases the blood volume and blood pressure by :

Angiotensin-II stimulates

Formation of angiotensin-II results in all except

Assertion :- Angiotensin II is a powerful vasconstrictor Reason :- Aldosterone causes reabsorption of Na^(+) and water from distal parts of the tubule.

Assertion: Angiotensin II increases the glomerular blood pressure thereby GFR. Reason: Angiotensin II activates the JG cells to release renin.

Assertion :- Angiotensin II, activates the adrenall cortex to release aldosterone. Reason :- Aldosterone causes reabsorption of Na^(o+) and water from the distal parts of the tubule.

Assertion :- An increase in glomerular blood pressure can activate the JG of kidney to release renin. Reason :- Angiotensin I is a powerful vaso constrictor.
