C) Parathyroid hormone flow to the kidneys; it stimulates the production of
D) artrial natriuretic peptide red blood cells. Atrial natriuretic peptide is pro-
duced by the right atrium of the heart in response
to increased blood volume. This hormone then acts
on the kidneys to promote sodium excretion, which
decreases the blood volume

cals than are needed for maintenance produces
A) cystitis ketones from fat metabolism as an alternate source
B) heart failure of fuel for muscles and organs.
