Answer:
Option B) functions to increase sodium reabsorption.
Explanation:
Aldosterone is an hormone secreted by the cortex of the adrenal gland. The adrenal gland is situated at the superior poles of the right and left kidneys.
Aldosterone regulates sodium homeostasis and as such helps to control blood volume and blood pressure.
Aldosterone is secreted in response to decreased blood pressure (hypotension) to increase sodium reabsorption from urine, sweat, and the gut. Also excessive aldosterone levels (too high sodium) can lead to high blood pressure (hypertension).
Answer:
Keratinocytes are located in the stratum basale in the epidermis and the hair follicle of the dermis. This statement is correct.
Explanation:
Keratinocytes are in the stratum basale of the epidermis, which is the deepest layer of the epidermis; from this layer, they ascend to the stratum spinosum, then to the stratum granulosum, then to the stratum lucidum if the skin is thick like the one that is in our hands or soles, and lastly they end in the stratum corneum. While the keratinocytes move from one layer to the next one, they change their characteristics.
Keratinocytes are also in hair follicles, they are similar to the keratinocytes from the dermis, but have some differences, such as their reproduction capacity.
