Role of mineralocorticoids.

Question

✓

Answer

The mineralocorticoids regulate ionic and osmotic balance, by regulating the amounts of electrolyte and water.
Aldosterone is the main mineralocorticoid that acts on the renal tubules.
Aldosterone stimulates the re$-$absorption of $Na^+$ and water and excretion of $K^+$ and phosphate ions.
The aldosterone helps in the maintenance of electrolytes, body fluid volume, osmotic pressure and blood pressure.
