Captopril is an angiotension-converting enzyme inhibitor that blocks the activation of angiotension I to angiotension II. The decreased blood concentration of angiotension II reduces blood pressure, because angiotension II is a potent vasoconstrictor. Thus (c) is wrong, accumulation of angiotension I is the usual effect. Captopril also aintains lowered BP by elevating bradykinin (which has potent vasodilatory action) in the blood by blocking its metabolism. Thus (d) is wrong, bradykinin metabolites do not accumulate.
