Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF) acts as a
- A Hypertension inducer
- B Check on Renin-Angiotension mechanism
- C Promoter on Renin-Angiotensin Mechanism
- D Vasoconstricter
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Check on Renin-Angiotension mechanism
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
(B) Check on Renin-Angiotension mechanism,
ANF causes vasodilation (dilation of blood vessels) and thereby decrease the blood pressure. ANF mechanism, acts as a check on the renin-angiotensin mechanism.
ANF causes vasodilation (dilation of blood vessels) and thereby decrease the blood pressure. ANF mechanism, acts as a check on the renin-angiotensin mechanism.
