Fill in the Blank QuestionFill in the blank question.Aldosterone affects the kidney, causing it to conserve ions and to excrete ions.

Aldosterone:Group of answer choicesincreases sodium reabsorption by the kidney.increases water reabsorption.increases the water volume in extracellular fluid.increases sodium reabsorption by the kidney, water reabsorption, and water volume in extracellular fluid.

The major effect of aldosterone on the kidneys is to promote Blank______.Multiple choice question.sodium ion reabsorption and potassium ion excretion by the proximal convoluted tubulessodium ion excretion and potassium ion reabsorption by the distal convoluted tubulessodium ion excretion and potassium ion reabsorption by the proximal convoluted tubulessodium ion reabsorption and potassium ion excretion by the distal convoluted tubules

Aldosterone increasesMultiple Choicepotassium retention by the kidneys.water excretion by the kidneys.sodium retention by the kidneys.sodium absorption by the intestinal villi.

The most important trigger for aldosterone release is the renin-angiotensin mechanism, mediated by the renal tubules. True False

Aldosterone promotes sodium and thus water to move from the filtrate through the tubule cells into the blood
