Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Lowered angiotensin II production is not a compensation mechanism for blood loss. The other three options are all compensatory mechanisms for blood loss. A fluid shift from ICF to plasma helps to maintain blood volume. Venous vasoconstriction helps to increase venous return and maintain blood pressure. Thirst stimulates the intake of fluids, which can help to restore blood volume.
