Question asked by Filo student

Q11. In response to increasing sodium levels in the body, the heart releases the hormone ANP (don't worry, we haven't talked about it). One of the effects of ANP is dilation of the arterioles carrying blood to the glomerulus. How do you think this will affect the glomerular filtration rate (i.e. the amount of fluid passing through the glomerulus per unit time)? Explain.
