A decrease in blood pressure/volume will not cause the release of:

  1. A
    Atrial Natriuretic Factor
  2. B
    Aldosterone
  3. C
    ADH
  4. D
    Renin

Solution & Step-by-step Explanation

A decrease in blood pressure/volume activates the RAAS (Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System) and triggers the release of ADH to conserve water and raise BP. However, Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF) is released by the atria of the heart in response to increased blood pressure/volume to promote salt/water excretion and cause vasodilation.
