Summary Introduction
To design: A table that specifies the properties of ANP, aldosterone, renin, ANG II, vasopressin, and angiotensin-converting enzyme.
Introduction: Vasopressin is also known as ADH (antidiuretic hormone). The cells that respond to electrical or chemical signals are defined as target cells.
