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 plays a role in maintaining blood pressure through the renin - angiotensin - aldosterone system. Erythropoietin is mainly produced by the kidneys (part of the urinary system) to stimulate red blood cell production. Regulating body temperature is mainly related to the integumentary system, and the hormone ADH stimulates kidney tubules to reabsorb water, not the urinary system itself in a direct sense as a whole.
