Explanation / Answer

33) When there is a decrease in ECF volume, adrenal cortex secretes the hormone aldosterone. Aldosterone acts on the renal tubules of nephron and causes increase in tubular reabsorption of sodium and water thereby decreasing the urine volume. Therefore, the answer for this question is option d (all of the above are true).
