Angiotensin II. Describe in detail the physiology of Angiotensin II. Include a detailed description of (1) what it is, (2) where it comes from, and (3) how it is activated. Describe in detail 3 mechanisms that act to activate it (the RAS system) and how and when they operate. Lastly describe each of the physiological effects of AngII and explain how each of these effects contribute to homeostasis. Discuss each separately. Be sure to make clear how each effect contributes to homeostasis.
