Answer:
b. dilation of the afferent arterioles and inhibition of renin release.
Explanation:
Atrial Natiuretic Peptide is a hormone which is mainly made and secreted in the atria. It helps in the regulation of blood pressure levels with the use of the kidney through an increase in water and sodium excretion.
The hormone helps in the regulation of blood pressure by ensuring there are dilation of the afferent arterioles to give room for increased flow of blood due to the increased pressure. Study also shows that the enzyme inhibits the release of renin.
