Renin-Angiotensin System
Functions
- Controls Ion copositin of the blood (via stimulation of aldosterone secretion)
- Increases water reabsorption in distal convoluted tubule
- Increases blood volume
- Increases water reabsorption in distal convoluted tubule
- Increases blood volume
- By increased water reabsorption (distal convuluted tubule - via aldosterone)
- Causes vasoconstriction in arterioles
- Controls Ion copositin of the blood (via stimulation of aldosterone secretion)
Throughout the day the blood volume remains within a normal range and doesnt change from this despite intake of fluids
- Function of kidneys removing excess fluid
- If blood volume begins to drop this is reversed by an increased reabsorption of water by the kidneys
