Question
which roles are the urinary system responsible for? select all that apply. maintain homeostasis. produce erythropoietin. regulate temperature. maintain blood pressure. stimulate the kidney tubules to reabsorb water
The urinary system helps maintain homeostasis by regulating the body's fluid - electrolyte balance and acid - base balance. It also helps maintain blood pressure through the renin - angiotensin - aldosterone system. Erythropoietin is produced by the kidneys which are part of the urinary system. Temperature regulation is mainly by the integumentary system. Stimulating kidney tubules to reabsorb water is mainly the role of antidiuretic hormone, but the kidneys (urinary system) are the target organs.
