Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Decreased blood flow to the kidneys would lead to an increase in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system, which would increase blood levels of renin and angiotensin. It would also lead to an increase in erythropoietin production as a compensation mechanism to increase red blood cell production. Additionally, there would be an increase in ADH release to conserve water, but there would not be an increase in natriuretic peptide release, which would normally be released to decrease blood volume and blood pressure. Therefore, only choice E would not occur with decreased blood flow to the kidneys.
