Question

Atrial natriuretic peptide is a hormone that controls blood pressure in part by increasing the urinary excretion of sodium. True or False

Answer 1

The answer is "true"

Step-by-step explanation:

ANP, or ANF, is a human peptide hormone, that controls your blood pressure, a cardiac atrium secretion hormone. It response primarily to the volume and stress expansion of the auricles and ventricles.

• ANP's main function decreases the amount of increased extracellular fluid by increasing renal excretion.
• This hormone is primarily developed by cardiovascular myocytes and, emanates from the wall tension locally, that's why the given statement is true.
