B) vagus nerve.
C) somatic nervous system.
D) sympathetic nervous system.
E) enteric nervous system.

Accepted Answer

The majority of renal innervation is by the sympathetic nervous system. This system controls the constriction or dilation of blood vessels, which affects the blood flow to the kidneys and the production of urine. The other options, such as parasympathetic nervous system, vagus nerve, somatic nervous system, and enteric nervous system, are not primarily involved in renal innervation.
