Q 13. Which of the following causes an increase in sodium reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule? Option A Increase in antidiuretic hormone levels Option B Decrease in aldosterone levels Option C Decrease in antidiuretic hormone levels Option D Increase in aldosterone levels
Q 13. Which of the following causes an increase in sodium reabsorption in the distal convoluted tubule? Option A Increase in antidiuretic hormone levels Option B Decrease in aldosterone levels Option C Decrease in antidiuretic hormone levels Option D Increase in aldosterone levels

Correct Option: D

Explanation: When there is an increase in the aldosterone level it results in an increase in the reabsorption of the sodium in the distal convoluted tubule. This leads to an increase in blood pressure and glomerular filtration rate (GFR).
