Circulating levels of aldosterone will increase.
true
false
Circulating levels of renin will decrease.
true
false
The sympathetic nervous system stimulates the adrenal glands.
true

Explanation / Answer
Drop in bp causes increase in aldosterone level.
2)false.
Decreased BP causes increase in the secretion of renin.
Juxta glomerular apparatus releases renin
3)true. Low BP stimules adrenal gland to compensate for the mechanism
4)false.
Low BP causes increased renin which causes increase in that absorption of water by DCT
4)true.
Low BP causes increase in angiotensin ii which is a vasoconstrictor that helps increase bp.
