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.

Answer:

Incomplete dominance

Explanation:

Incomplete dominance is a condition observed in the organisms while studying their genetics.

When the organisms with two alleles for the same trait are crossed, then neither of the two alleles completely express themselves but a new variation of the trait is formed.

This can be observed in the given scenario also when the ed and white flowers are crossed, then the pink flowers (a new variation of the trait) is formed called blended trait.

Thus, incomplete dominance is correct.

zavuch27 [327]
<span>The average human red blood cell is roughly 6 to 8 micrometers wide. The width of a pin is this problem is defined as 1000 micrometers. Assuming we use the smallest size of a blood cell, then we divide 1000 by 6, and we find that roughly 166.66 (or 166 if you are rounding down) red blood cells will fit.</span>
