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.
- When the plasma sodium levels decrease and the plasma potassium levels increase the production of aldosterone hormone is stimulated for sodium is needed in the .body to maintain the high water levels in the body.

Answer:
Their nephron loop is closely wrapped with vasa recta.
Explanation:
Cortical nephrons are located in the cortex.
They form 85% of all the nephrons in the kidney. They are located mostly within superficial cortex of kidney. The loop of henle of a cortical nephron is relatively short and hence not closely wrapped with vasa recta. Efferent arteriole delivers blood to a network of peritubular capillaries.
