In this answer we are going to see what are the organs which are involved in the production of each of the component of the ras system.
00:16
So the ras system is the abbreviation for renin angiotensin andosterone system which is involved in the regulation of blood volume and fluid balance.
00:44
It also regulates the vascular resistance.
00:51
So ras is activated when there is a drop in the blood pressure due to the reduced blood volume.
01:07
So when the blood volume reduces there is a drop in the blood pressure.
01:11
So ras is activated.
01:14
So when ras is activated, it increases the water and electrolyte absorption by the kidneys.
01:23
So when there is a drop in blood pressure, the juxta glomerular cells of the kidneys, they produce pro -renin which is cleaved and it's activated into renin.
01:51
So the renin is secreted into the bloodstream.
01:58
So angiotensinogen, which is the inactive precursor, which is produced...
