When a client's gallbladder has decreased ability to release bile when he is having a high fat content meal, what hormone is not released to stimulate contractions of the gallbladder?
A) Gastrin
B) Erythropoietin
C) Angiotensin
D) Cholecystokinin
D
Feedback:
Cholecystokinin released from cells in the small intestine stimulates contraction of the gallbladder to release bile when dietary fat is ingested. Gastrin is released within the stomach to increase the production of hydrochloric acid. Erythropoietin is a substance that promotes the maturation of red blood cells. The kidneys release renin, a hormone that initiates the production of angiotensin and aldosterone to increase blood pressure and blood volume.
