Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Aldosterone production is stimulated by the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), which is activated by angiotensin II. Injecting a drug that blocks the production of angiotensin II would directly decrease the production of aldosterone. The other options are not directly related to the production of aldosterone.
