Statement 1- A peptide hormone that is secreted by cardiocytes is the Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) which inhibits the release of renin from the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney.
Statement 2 - ANF is a hormone that drops blood pressure by relaxing arteriole and venules and by increasing capillary permeability.
Statement 1 and statement 2 both are right.
Statement 1 is wrong, Statement 2 is right.
Statement 2 is wrong, Statement 1 is right.
Both statements are wrong
A peptide hormone that is secreted by cardiocytes is Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF). Which inhibits the release of renin from juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney. ANF is a hormone that drops the blood pressure by relaxing arteriole and venules and by increasing capillary permeability.
Hence, the correct answer is option 1.
