After prolonged exertion in a hot climate,baroreceptors would ________ firing,leading to ________ secretion of ________ and thus ________ renal reabsorption of ________.

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Prolonged exertion in a hot climate leads to decreased firing of baroreceptors, triggering an increased secretion of vasopressin. This leads to increased renal reabsorption of water to help maintain blood volume and prevent dehydration. Therefore, the correct answer is C, as it matches this mechanism. Choices A and B can be ruled out because they both include renin, which is not directly involved in the regulation of water balance. Choices D and E can also be ruled out because they have opposite effects on vasopressin secretion and renal reabsorption of water compared to the expected response in this situation.
