Decrease in blood flow (hypoxia) à decrease in oxygen in the kidney à kidney secretes 1. __________ à reaches the liver to secrete 2. _______________ à goes back to the blood stream. Blood brings it to the lungs which has 3. ________________ . The role of (#3) is to 4. ___________________________ à which is a potent vasoconstrictor if it binds to 5. ___________________ in blood vessels.

Renin Angiotensin Aldosterone System
Decrease in blood flow (hypoxia) à decrease in oxygen in the kidney à kidney secretes 1. __________
à reaches the liver to secrete 2. _______________ à goes back to the blood stream. Blood brings it to
the lungs which has 3. ________________ . The role of (#3) is to 4. ___________________________
à which is a potent vasoconstrictor if it binds to 5. ___________________ in blood vessels. This results
to an increase in 6. ______________________ which will lead to an increase in 7. _____________________.
Blood flow increases in the kidney, which will stop producing Renin.
There is also an angiotensin 2 receptor in the 8. ____________________, where angiotensin 2 may also
bind, leading to the production of 9. ______________________, which retains 10. _____________ and
excretes potassium. Since sodium loves 11. _____________________, there is a further increase
in 12. ________________ which further increases total peripheral resistance and blood pressure.
The sodium retained increases osmolarity, making the blood more viscous, which stimulates the
13. ________________ to secrete 14. _____________________. This further retains water, increases
total peripheral resistance and 15. ____________________.
Choices:
➢ Hypothalamus
➢ Adrenal cortex
➢ Water
➢ Angiotensin 2 receptor
➢ Blood pressure
➢ Angiotensin 1
➢ Converts angiotensin 1 to angiotensin 2
➢ Total peripheral resistance ( TPR )
➢ Renin
➢ Antidiuretic hormone ( ADH )
➢ Blood volume
➢ Angiotensin converting enzyme ( ACE )
➢ Aldosterone
➢ Sodium
