Question

which of the following would occur as a result of increased renin release by the kidneys? multiple choice a decrease in aldosterone an increase in urine output an increase in blood volume an increase in vasodilator secretion a decrease in blood pressure

Explanation:

Renin - angiotensin - aldosterone system (RAAS) is activated when renin is released. Renin leads to the production of angiotensin II which stimulates aldosterone secretion. Aldosterone causes the kidneys to reabsorb sodium and water, increasing blood volume. An increase in blood volume generally leads to an increase in blood pressure. Vasodilator secretion is not directly increased by renin release. An increase in renin does not lead to increased urine output or decreased aldosterone.

Answer:

C. An increase in blood volume
