Answer to Question 1

ANS:
400

Antidiuretic hormone secretion is one cause of oliguria, or diminished excretion of urine, that is less than 400 milliliters per day or 30 milliliters per hour.

Answer to Question 2

ANS: C
Erythropoietin stimulates the bone marrow to produce red blood cells in response to tissue hy-poxia. This is not the function of creatinine, aldosterone, or renin.
