Solution

The correct option is A Renin
Renin is the enzyme secreted by the kidney. Juxa glomerular cells present in kidney release renin. It activates the renin-angiotensin system and produces a rise in blood pressure. It has stretch receptors in the vascular walls which sense changes in renal perfusion pressure.
So, the correct answer is option A.
