Question
multiple select question select all that apply choose all hormones that help to regulate blood pressure. □ calcitonin □ aldosterone □ thyroid stimulating hormone □ antidiuretic hormone □ atrial natriuretic peptide
Aldosterone regulates blood pressure by increasing sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion, which affects blood volume and pressure. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) controls blood pressure by regulating water reabsorption in the kidneys, influencing blood volume. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is released when atrial walls are stretched due to increased blood volume and causes vasodilation and increased sodium - water excretion to lower blood pressure. Calcitonin mainly regulates calcium levels and thyroid - stimulating hormone regulates thyroid function, neither directly regulating blood pressure.
