Explanation / Answer

1. Bowman capsule. Blood plasma is filtered through the glomerular capillaries and is transfered to the capsule.

3. Glomeruli, efferent arteriole.

The unpure blood enters into the capillary bed of glomerulus and pure blood leaves through the efferent arteriole.

18. Angiotensin is the hormone which is secreted to enhance blood pressure as it stimulates vasoconstriction and thus enhances blood pressure.

19. Renin angiotensin aldosterone system. This system gets activated in the presence of low sodium ion concentration or low renal blood flow and results in increase in the blood pressure.
