🗑
An excess of carbon dioxide in the blood is known as Blank______.   show
🗑
Normally, fluid moves into a capillary at the venule end through which mechanism?   show
🗑
Hormone: Angiotensin II   show
🗑
Hormone: Aldosterone   show
🗑
Hormone: Natriuretic peptides   show
🗑
show Increases blood pressure by promoting water retention; acts as a vasoconstrictor at extremely high concentrations  
🗑
