Correct Answer: 1
Rationale 1: The lungs are responsible for the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II because they possess a large number of capillaries.
Rationale 2: The kidneys are not responsible for the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II.
Rationale 3: The heart is not responsible for the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II.
Rationale 4: The liver is not responsible in the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II.
Global Rationale: The lungs are responsible for the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II because they possess a large number of capillaries. The kidneys, the heart, and the liver are not responsible for the conversion of angiotensin I to angiotensin II.
