Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Aldosterone is a hormone produced by the adrenal gland that helps regulate sodium and potassium levels in the body. Increased production of aldosterone leads to reabsorption of sodium in the kidneys, which results in increased plasma sodium levels. This in turn can lead to increased blood pressure and fluid retention.
