One difference between an MA and MS degree that some students donât think of is whether the degree is a terminal one. A terminal degree is the highest type of degree that an individual can receive in his or her field. An MA is usually a terminal degree, while an MS degree prepares students for working on their doctoral degrees later.
Aldosterone secretion is controlled by the RAA system and by concentrations of K+ in the circulation, which if increased evokes secretion of aldosterone.
Aldosterone stimulates the retention of sodium (salt) and the excretion of potassium by the kidneys. Renin is produced by the kidneys and controls the activation of the hormone angiotensin, which stimulates the adrenal glands to produce aldosterone.The kidneys release renin when there is a drop in blood pressure or a decrease in sodium chloride concentration in the tubules in the kidney.enin cleaves the blood protein angiotensinogen to form angiotensin I, which is then converted by a second enzyme to angiotensin II. Angiotensin II causes blood vessels to constrict, and it stimulates aldosterone production.
