When MAP is elevated due to ingestion of abnormally large amounts of fluid, which would be the correct hormonal response?
a. Increased secretion of ANP and decreased secretion of renin.
b. Increased sympathetic output and decreased secretion of renin.
c. Increased secretion of ANP and epinephrine.
when MAP is elevated due to increased intake of fluids it causes increased scretion of ANP and decreased secretion of Renin.
ANP is a natriureric peptide secreted by the atria in response to stress.
ANP is secreted under the following conditions
ANP causes decrease in blood pressure by increasing salt and water excretion by kidneys, by vasodilation and by increased water permeability across cells
Option 2: Wrong
Increased sympathetic output leads to adrenaline and noradrenaline secretion -Increased Heart rate& vasoconstriction -increased BP & MAP
Option 3: Wrong
increased secretion of epinephrine - Increased Heart rate& vasoconstriction -increased BP & MAP
