medium
A patient who excretes large quantity of sodium in urine has
A
Diseased adrenal medulla
B
Diseased adrenal cortex
C
Diseased pancreas
D
Diseased thymus
Solution
Adrenal cortex releases mineralocorticoids which increases $Na^+$ and decreases the $K^+$ ions in the blood by increasing the $Na^+$ absorption in the renal tubules and increase $K^+$ excretion in the urine.
Diseased adrenal cortex results into deficiency of hormone.
