Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Renal conservation of sodium and water can lead to decreased urine output and help stabilize blood pressure. Response to chemoreceptors in the aortic arch is associated with respiratory control rather than blood pressure stabilization. Change in body temperature and intake of dietary fat and protein are not directly related to blood pressure stabilization.
