The kidneys are controlled by hormones from the brain, liver, and other locations. However, the kidneys also produce the hormone renin in their juxtaglomerular complex. How would damage to the juxtaglomerular complex affect the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system? a. Aldosterone will not be produced, decreasing blood volume b. Angiotensin I will not be produced, decreasing blood pressure c. Angiotensin-converting enzyme will not be produced, increasing sodium reabsorption. d. Angiotensin II will not be produced, increasing the glomerular filtration rate.
