4 0

Answer:

The correct answer is E.

Explanation:

The main function of <u>atrial natriuretic peptide</u> (ANP) is to reduce extracellular fluid volume by increasing renal sodium excretion.

<u>Aldosterone</u> is a steroid hormone, produced by the adrenal cortex, that is part of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system which helps to maintain blood pressure. Aldosterone increases reabsorption of sodium and potassium excretion, and as a result an increase in extracellular fluid volume and in blood pressure.  

In conclusion, <em>ANP reduces aldosterone secretion.</em>
