Reabsorption of water in DCT and CT part of nephron is the function of
1 ANF
2 Angiostensin
3 Vasopressin
4 Renin
Explanation:
\(\mathrm{ADH} /\) Vasopressin facilitates water reabsorption from latter parts of the tubule i.e. DCT and CT thereby preventing diuresis.

Which of the following is most likely to cause an increase in the glomerular filtration rates?
1 Blockage of ureter
2 Dilation of the afferent arterioles
3 Release of renin from the juxtaglomerular apparatus
4 Volume depletion
Explanation:
A fall in glomerular blood flow/ glomerular blood pressure/GFR can activate the JG cells to release renin which converts angiotensinogen in blood to angiotensin I and further to angiotensin II. Angiotensin II, being a powerful vasoconstrictor, increases the glomerular blood pressure and thereby GFR.

Which one of the following is not a zymogen?
1 Trypsinogen
2 Pepsinogen
3 Angiotensin -II
4 Procollaginase
Explanation:
Inactive precursors of enzymes are known as proenzymes or zymogen granules. It undergoes a chemical change to get activated. Some examples are trypsinogen, pepsinogen, procollagenase but angiotensin II is not a proenzyme but it is a vasoconstrictor that regulates blood pressure.

ANF mechanism checks on
1 Oxytocin-renin mechanism
2 Counter-current mechanims
3 Renin-angiotensin mechanism
4 Oxytocin-angiotensin mechanism
Explanation:
Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF) is produced by atria of heart during increased blood pressure/volume. It is responsible for causing vasodilation and thereby, decreasing the blood pressure. A decrease in blood pressure/ volume stimulates the hypothalamus to release \(\mathrm{ADH}\) (Anti Diuretic hormone) as well as JGA (Juxta Glomerular Apparatus) cells to release renin. Renin by renin-angiotensin mechanism activates the adrenal cortex to release aldosterone. Therefore, ANF mechanism acts as a check on renin-angiotensin mechanism.
