Answer:
C. Aldosterone increases sodium reabsorption by increasing the number of Na+-K+ ATPase pumps in the luminal membrane of the proximal tubule.
Explanation:
- Aldosterone hormone is produced by the adrenal gland and mainly carries out its functions in the kidney.Through the aldosterone hormone the body is able to retain more water for the kidney is able to hold more sodium.

Answer:
1. sympathetic
2. parasympathetic
Explanation:
The sympathetic division of the autonomic nervous system triggers the release of stress hormones from adrenal medulla under emergency conditions. There is a series of physiological responses such as increased heart and breathing rate, an increased flow of blood to skeletal muscles, dilation of pupils, etc. These events helped Nasim to fight the stress conditions.
Once she was relieved, the parasympathetic system is activated that shut down the physiological responses generated by sympathetic division. It slows down the breathing and heart rate and triggers the digestion and absorption of nutrients to restore the energy level of cells.
