Question

List and describe 3 corrective and 3 compensating effects that angiotensin II has that returns GFR back to normal.

Answer 1

GLOMERULAR FILTRATION is the amount of fluid that is being filtered in our body

1. Angiotensin cause the Increase in glomerular Capillary Pressure that is an important factor in the GFR that is

GFR= glomerular capillary pressure-( colloidal Pressure+ hydrostatic pressure of blood )

So this glomerular Capillary pressure will incre there by increase the Glomerular filtration rate

2)

Angiotensin 2 activates the ADH and it's secretion this will cause the Increase in fluid retention m. This retention will cause an increase in the whole body fluids . So when then while body fluid Increase the GFR increase

3) it cause retention of sodium in blood and Increase the osmolarity of blood. This will cause to increase the thirst of person and Increase fluids intake

4) it cause the activation of angiotensin 3 and stimulate product of aldosterone which cause retention if sodium and water which increases body fluids. So this will cause increase in GFR
