Answer:

b. Aldosterone promotes sodium reabsorption in the kidneys.

Once it is produced by the adrenal gland it stimulates the mineralocorticoid receptors on the distal tubule and collecting duct of the kidney's nephrons. This causes sodium reabsorption in the kidneys indirectly affecting water retention.

Mama L [17]

Answer:

Transcription

Explanation:

First comes Transcription, then comes Translation.

For example, DNA comes first, RNA comes second, and Protein comes third which makes proteins last. So, during the DNA process, Replication occurs. After that, DNA hops over to RNA using Transcription, and after that RNA hops over to Protein using Translation. So, we look left to right. Now, when I listed everything, Transcription came first and Translation came second. There is your answer.
