The secretion of aldosterone is directly stimulated by angiotensin II.

Aldosterone is a mineralocorticoid hormone. It is synthesized in the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex that affects water and salt regulation in the body.

The basic function of the hormone is to act on the late distal tubule and collecting duct of nephrons in the kidney, which promotes sodium and water reabsorption and potassium removal thus maintaining acid-base balance.

Conditions like low blood pressure or low serum sodium stimulates the renin‐angiotensin‐aldosterone system (RAAS) in which initially renin is produced from the renal juxtaglomerular cells after which angiotensinogen is cleaved into angiotensin I. Angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) from the lungs then converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II, which in turn triggers the production of aldosterone.

All of the following are effector responses that increase body temperature, EXCEPT A : vasodilation of dermal blood vessels B :
Ainat [17]

Answer: Option A

Explanation:

The effector response that increases the body is not associated with vasodilation of dermal blood vessels.

The skins's immense blood supply helps in temperature regulation of the body. The dilated blood vessels helps in heat loss and lowers the body temperature.

Unlike, them the vasoconstriction retains heat and increases the body temperature.

So, the correct answer is option A

<span>The nurse needs to note the outburst, and report it to her supervisor. Although this comment seems at the surface to be an admission of guilt, perhaps there are other unseen circumstances. For example, perhaps she is blaming herself for letting the child out of her sight, and the injuries were actually caused by another while the child was out of her vigilance.</span>

Serggg [28]

Dr. Haxton says the O-O bond is polar and the C-C bond is nonpolar. A good student would say ...

a.No, both bonds are highly polar.

b.Yes. O attracts electrons more strongly than C.

c.Right! O is electronegative, so O2 is polar.

d.Wrong again, Ralph. Both bonds are nonpolar. When two atoms of the same kind form a covalent bond, they share electrons equally because their electronegativity is the same.

e.No way. C is more electronegative than O.

Answer: d.Wrong again, Ralph. Both bonds are nonpolar. When two atoms of the same kind form a covalent bond, they share electrons equally because their electronegativity is the same.

Explanation:

Often when O and H are present in the substance at (opposite) ends (of the electronegativity scale), the polarity observed is very large, we can safely say the substance have a polar bond in it.

Which are the basic units of a DNA nucleotide?
ohaa [14]

Answer:

The basic repeating unit of nucleic acids are known as nucleotides. A nucleotide consists of three distinct chemical groups, a 5-carbon sugar (ribose or deoxyribose), a nitrogen-rich base - (cytosine (C), guanine (G), adenine (A), thymine (T) in DNA or uracil (U) instead of T (in RNA), and phosphate.
