Question

Name the endocrine gland which secretes a hormone that maintains correct salt balance in the blood.

Answer 1

The adrenal gland secretes hormones called aldosterone that maintain correct salt balance in the blood.​ ​

• Aldosterone has an impact on the body's ability to regulate blood pressure. It sends the signal to organs such as the kidney and colon, which may increase the amount of sodium in the bloodstream, or the amount of potassium excreted in the urine.
