Solution

The correct option is D Increased arterial pressure in kidney
When the intra-renal pressure falls, the renin-angiotensin system is activated, which in turn elevates the pressure to increase the glomerular filtration rate. But if the arterial pressure in the kidneys remains high already, then this renin- angiotensin system fails to get triggered. Thus the fluid reabsorption rate reduces.
