C) The elasticity of the large arteries helps decrease diastolic BP.
D) If BP decreases,filtration in the kidneys decreases.
E) Aldosterone stimulates the reabsorption of Na⁺ ions by the kidneys,which lowers BP.
F) If BP decreases,the kidneys secrete the enzyme renin,which stimulates the secretion of epinephrine to prevent a further decreasE.
G) Norepinephrine stimulates vasoconstriction in skin,viscera,and skeletal muscles,all of which lower BP.
H) The atrial natriuretic hormone (ANP) increases the excretion of K⁺ ions by the kidneys,which helps conserve water and raise BP.
