Questions and Answers

What is the effect of angiotensin II on glomerular arterioles?

  • It dilates both efferent and afferent arterioles
  • It constricts both efferent and afferent arterioles equally
  • It constricts afferent arterioles more than efferent arterioles
  • It constricts efferent arterioles more than afferent arterioles (correct)
  • How does the constriction of afferent arterioles affect systemic arterial blood pressure?

  • It decreases the arteriolar resistance, lowering blood pressure
  • It has no effect on blood pressure
  • It increases the arteriolar resistance, raising blood pressure (correct)
  • It causes blood pressure to fluctuate randomly
  • What is the primary mechanism by which the kidneys maintain glomerular blood hydrostatic pressure?

  • Constricting both efferent and afferent arterioles equally
  • Dilating both efferent and afferent arterioles
  • Constricting afferent arterioles more than efferent arterioles
  • Constricting efferent arterioles more than afferent arterioles (correct)
