The most important regulator of electrolyte concentrations in extracellular fluids is?
The answer is Aldosterone. Accounts for >95% of the mineralocorticoid produced; the essential function of mineralocorticoids is to regulate the electrolyte concentrations in extracellular fluids, (Na+ and K+)
Can you get an example if stimulate?
What is the example of stimulate
What is an example for meiosis?

Which hormones maintain salt and water balance in the extracellular fluid?
Aldosterone (a mineralocorticoid) regulates water and electrolyte (salt) balance in the extracellular fluid, mainly by regulating sodium ion reabsorption by kidney tubules. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) causes the distal and collecting tubules of the kidney to reabsorb more water from the urinary filtrate, thereby reducing urine output and conserving body water.
What is an example of a liverwort?
example of a liverwort is "marchantia"
Is aldosterone the most potent mineralocorticoid?
Most potent mineralocorticoid is fludrocortisone
What is the major mineralocorticoid?
Aldosterone
Mineralocorticoid is to aldosterone as glucocorticoid is to?
cortisol
Actions of mineralocorticoid?
can you list two actions of the mineralocoidicoid
Which gland is responsible for mineralocorticoid production?
The adrenal glands which are located near the kidneys.
Is it true that aldosterone is the most potent mineralocorticoid produced in the adrenals but the least abundant?
false
Name a glucocorticoid a mineralocorticoid and a catecholamine secreted by the adrenal gland?
cortisol aldutesron adrenaline
What requires replacement doess of steroids especially mineralocorticoid?
Addisons, for whoever is doing the study guide for chapter 14!
Which layer of the adrenal gland secretes glucocorticoid?
The layer of the suprarenal gland responsible for mineralocorticoid production is the zona glomerulosa.
The most important regulator of electrolyte concentrations in extracellular fluids is?
The answer is Aldosterone. Accounts for >95% of the mineralocorticoid produced; the essential function of mineralocorticoids is to regulate the electrolyte concentrations in extracellular fluids, (Na+ and K+)
What is aldosterone?
A disorder caused by excessive production of the hormone aldosterone, which is produced by a part of the adrenal glands called the adrenal cortex
Where does Prednisone come from?
mineralocorticoid is synthesized in zona glomerulosa of adrenal cortex
