Explanation / Answer

11. d. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), Angiotensin II, and Epinephrine

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) - produced in response to dehydration or decreased blood volume

Angiotensin II - also stimulates secretion of aldosterone (renin-angiotensin-aldosterone (RAA) system)

13. decrease

The hypothesis that the increase in post-prandial splanchnic blood flow will be reduced during hypoxia to prioritise blood flow to other organs.

15. decrease

16. b. Lymphatic system
