Which of these does NOT stimulate aldosterone production?
A. high plasma Na+
B. high plasma K+
C. Angiotensin II
D. high plasma He+

Respuesta :

Answer:

(A). high plasma Na+.

Explanation:

Aldosterone is a steroid hormone, synthesized by adrenal gland.  It plays role in homeostatic regulation of sodium ions, potassium ions and blood pressure.

Aldosterone is responsible for increase reabsorption of sodium ions (Na⁺) and secretion of potassium ions (K⁺). Angiotensin II is a hormone that stimulates production of aldosterone

Low Na⁺ level, High plasma K⁺ level, angiotensin II, and high plasma H⁺ stimulates production of aldosterone from cortex of adrenal gland.

Thus, the correct answer is option (A).
