Answer:

Renin activates the renin-angiotensin system by cleaving angiotensinogen (AGT), produced by the liver, to yield angiotensin I, which is further converted into angiotensin II by Angiotensin Converting Enzyme 1 (ACE), the angiotensin-converting enzyme primarily within the capillaries of the lungs. Angiotensin II then constricts blood vessels, increases the secretion of ADH and aldosterone, and stimulates the hypothalamus to activate the thirst reflex, each leading to an increase in blood pressure. Renin's primary function is therefore to eventually cause an increase in blood pressure, leading to restoration of perfusion pressure

  • Renin's primary function is to eventually cause an increase in blood pressure.

  • It also controls aldosterone production.

  • Renin also causes the kidneys to re absorb sodium.
