Answer #1

Hyperaldosteronism leads to all except :-

(e) Decreased blood pressure.

In hyperaldosteronism there is excess secretion of Aldosterone from cortex of adrenal glands. This leads to NaCl retention from the kidney which causes water to be reabsorbed alongwith with Sodium. This increases the blood volume. Increase in blood volume leads to high blood pressure.

Since water is reabsorbed so there is decreased volume of urine excreted.

Aldosterone increase the potassium release in urine thus decreases the potassium levels in our body and causes hypokalemia.

So all options are true about hyperaldosteronism except (e) Decreased blood pressure. So the correct answer is (e).
