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.

Animals get carbon by eating plants or by eating other animals.

so the correct answer would be C

The lion eats an herbivore that ate the grass

Plants use carbon dioxide for photosynthesis. By doing so, they remove inorganic carbon from the atmosphere and incorporate it into the plants’ tissues in the form of organic carbon (sugar and starch).

Carbon is returned to an inorganic state in a number of ways. As an animal breathes (respires), it exhales carbon dioxide, returning it back to the atmosphere. When an animal or plant dies, it is broken down by bacteria and fungi and again the carbon is released (this process is called decomposition).

Sometimes, instead of completely decomposing, a plant or animal may be fossilised, leading to its carbon being stored in a rock. After millions of years and under the right conditions, these fossils may turn into fossil fuels (oil, coal and natural gas).

hope this helps!!
