How does the excretory system work to lower blood pressure ?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Complex: The kidneys are critical from a number of factors. They eliminate excess water from the circulatory system which keeps pressure from rising in the system. They also produce a number of chemicals like renin and angiotensin which constrict blood vessels which if out of balance can cause high bp.
