What hormone increases excretion of electrolytes by the kidneys?
Aldosterone, secreted by the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal gland, will make your kidneys excrete more potassium and acid in urine, but it will make your kidneys absorb more sodium.
What hormones produced by each zone of the adrenal cortex?
Outer zona glomerulosa secrets the hormone called as aldosterone. Middle zona fasciculata secretes the hormone called as cortisol and hydrocortisone. Inner zona reticulosa secretes the androgens.
What hormone does zona reticularis produce?
The zona reticularis produces androgens. The most important androgens such as:TestosteroneDihydrotestosterone (DHT)Androstenedione (Andro)Dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA)
Where does Prednisone come from?
mineralocorticoid is synthesized in zona glomerulosa of adrenal cortex
Which layer of the adrenal gland secretes glucocorticoid?
The layer of the suprarenal gland responsible for mineralocorticoid production is the zona glomerulosa.
What hormone is produced by zona fasciculata cells?
glucocorticoidsmainly cortisol, hydrocortisone, and cortisone. This promotes fat deposition and suppresses immune response. It is regulated by adrenocorticotropic hormone that is secreted by the adenohypophysis of the pituitary gland.en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Zona_fasciculata
Which pairs correctly match the adrenal gland zone or area with the class of hormones it produces?
zona glomerulosa/mineralocorticoids
Which pair correctly match the adrenal gland zone or area with the class of horomones it produces?
zona glomerulosa: mineralocorticoids
What is the medical term meaning hormone secreted by the testes?
The medical term for the hormone secreted by the testes is testosterone.
Which of the following pairs correctly match the adrenal gland zone or area with the class of hormones it produces?

90 percent of the secreted thyroid hormone is?
The majority of secreted thyroid hormone is T4 - the storage hormone.
How does Atrial natriuretic peptide reduce blood volume and pressure?
ANP acts to reduce the water, sodium and adipose loads on the circulatory system, thereby reducing blood pressure. ANP has exactly the opposite function of the aldosterone secreted by the zona glomerulosa.
