Which of the Following is Not a Regulatory Function of the Urinary

Question

Which of the following is not a regulatory function of the urinary system?
A) Secretes renin
B) Regulates pH level of the blood
C) Secretes aldosterone
D) Regulates electrolyte concentration

Accepted Answer

The secretion of aldosterone is a regulatory function of the urinary system. It helps regulate electrolyte balance by promoting sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion in the kidney. The urinary system also regulates pH levels of the blood by controlling the excretion of hydrogen ions and bicarbonate ions. It secretes renin, which plays a role in regulating blood pressure, and regulates electrolyte concentrations by controlling the reabsorption and excretion of various ions in the urine. Therefore, option C is not a correct regulatory function of the urinary system.
