Step-by-step solution
Renin is an enzyme released by the juxtaglomerular cells that converts angiotensinogen in blood to angiotensin I. Angiotensin II is a powerful vasoconstrictor that increases the glomerular blood pressure and thereby GFR. Aldosterone causes reabsorption of Na ^+ and water from the distal parts of the tubule, leading to an increase in blood pressure. Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF) is released by the atria of the heart in response to increased blood flow. It causes vasodilation and decreases blood pressure, acting an
