What factors stimulate the thirst center in the hypothalamus? Correct Ans-Increased blood
osmolarity(more solutes)
Decreased blood volume

Dry mouth
What does a decreased blood pressure stimulate in the kidneys? Correct Ans-Stimulates
the release of renin, which increases angiotensin II formation, leading to increased thirst,
increased water intake, and increased blood volume, and increased blood pressure

more water to be reabsorbed, decreasing blood osmolarity, increasing blood volume,
increasing blood pressure

Correct Ans-Aldosterone and ANP
When is RAAS activated? Correct Ans-Decreased blood pressure or Na+ deficiency in
plasma, this causes an increase in renin release which activates the RAAS system. This
increases Na+ reabsorption and water reabsorption in the late DCT and collecting ducts
Functions of ANP Correct Ans-ANP responds to increased blood volume and increased
stretch of atria of the heart, promoting natriuresis (elevated excretion of Na+ into urine).
Where sodium goes, water follows, therefore there is also a loss of water, and a decrease in
blood volume.
