D: ANP acts to reduce blood volume by: Increasing Na+ excretion at kidneys (blocking release aldosterone); Increasing volume of urine produced; Reducing thirst; Blocking release of ADH. ANP acts to reduce blood pressure by blocking release of the vasoconstrictors adrenaline & noradrenaline and stimulating peripheral vasodilation.
