Video transcript

Hello everyone and welcome to today's video. So which of the following is not an intrinsic control mechanism to regulate the Glow mauler filtration rate. As answer choice A we have the myogenic mechanism B, the two below Glow Me feedback mechanism, see the hormonal mechanism D, we have both A and B and now let's go over each of these answer choices beginning by answer choice A and B. Now the myogenic mechanism and the log glomerular feedback mechanism. These are both going to be mechanisms used by renal or Renault auto regulation. And this type of outer regulation is going to be an intrinsic control mechanism and therefore we can cancel both of them out. And this leaves us with answer choice C which is going to be a hormonal mechanism. Now, hormonal and I neural regulation are both gonna come as part of strength control mechanisms and their main purpose is going to be to regulate the gar to maintain systemic blood pressure. Therefore, we can highlight answer choice C hormonal mechanism as a final answer to our question. I really hope this video helped you and I hope to see you on the next one.
