Anions are negatively charged particles. The water molecule is a polar molecule, that means that, it is partly positive and partly negative. The oxygen atoms in the water molecules are more electronegative more than the hydrogen atoms and they draw the shared electron nearer to themselves than the hydrogen atoms; this make them to be slightly negatively charged while the hydrogen atom is slightly positively charged.
Therefore in solution, the anions would be attracted toward the hydrogen atom that is slightly positive while the cations will be attracted to oxygen atom that is slightly negative.
Answer:
It between the ages of 25 and 40 years.
Explanation:
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).
Active transport is the homeostatic process that moves particles against a concentration gradient.
