Solution

  1. Not produced by the glomerular capsule: Renin is produced by the juxtaglomerular cells of the kidney, not the glomerular capsule.

  2. Not regulated by ADHA hormone produced by the kidneys: Renin is not regulated by ADHA. It is regulated by the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS), which is a hormone system that regulates blood pressure and fluid balance.

  3. Regulates aldosterone: This is correct. Renin is part of the RAAS, which regulates the production of aldosterone. When blood pressure is low, renin is released, which eventually leads to the production of aldosterone to increase blood pressure.

  4. Regulated by blood pressure: This is correct. Renin is released when blood pressure is low as part of the body's mechanism to increase blood pressure.
