Answer;
Sodium and potassium concentration are altered in the kidney in response to aldosterone hormone.
Explanation;
- Although the sodium content of the body may be altered, its concentration in the ECF remains stable because of immediate adjustments in water volume.
- Aldosterone stimulates the reabsorption of sodium while enhancing potassium secretion. Therefore, When aldosterone release is inhibited, sodium reabsorption cannot occur beyond the collecting tube.
- Aldosterone hormone is produced from the adrenal gland. the release of this hormone is stimulated by the decrease in blood pressure.
