Question

question 61
the release of aldosterone is stimulated by
angiotensin ii
glucocorticoids
renin
decreased solute concentration in the blood

question 62
corticosteroids includes
mineralocorticoids
glucocorticoids
aldosterone
cortisol
all of the above

Explanation:

• For Question 61: Angiotensin II stimulates the release of aldosterone. Renin acts to initiate the renin - angiotensin - aldosterone system which eventually leads to aldosterone release via formation of angiotensin II, but it is angiotensin II directly stimulating aldosterone release. Glucocorticoids are a different class of hormones and decreased solute concentration in the blood is not a direct stimulator of aldosterone release.
• For Question 62: Corticosteroids are a class of steroid hormones. Mineralocorticoids (like aldosterone) and glucocorticoids (like cortisol) are types of corticosteroids. So all the options listed are part of corticosteroids.

Answer:

• Question 61: angiotensin II
• Question 62: all of the above
