Step-by-step solution
Gastrin acts on the gastric glands and stimulates the secretion of hydrochloric acid and pepsinogen. Secretin acts on the exocrine pancreas and stimulates the secretion of water and bicarbonate ions. Erythropoietin is a peptide hormone produced by the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney which stimulates erythropoiesis (formation of RBCs). Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF) is secreted by the atrial wall of our heart. It causes dilation of the blood vessels and thereby decreases blood pressure. Therefore, the correct m
