Aldosterone

Vedclass · Answer

(A) Aldosterone is a mineralocorticoid hormone secreted by the adrenal cortex.It acts primarily on the distal convoluted tubules and collecting ducts of the nephrons in the kidneys.It stimulates the reabsorption of $Na^+$ ions and water from the renal filtrate back into the blood,while promoting the excretion of $K^+$ and phosphate ions.Therefore,it plays a crucial role in maintaining electrolyte balance and blood pressure.
