The function of aldosterone is mainly:
| 1. | reabsorption of sodium and water at distal renal tubules |
| 2. | growth of axial, pubic and facial hair |
| 3. | vasodilation leading to polyuria |
| 4. | mobilization of metabolites for energy |
In males, androgens like testosterone secreted by Leydig cells in testes do not:
| 1. | regulate the development, maturation and functions of the male accessory sex organs |
| 2. | control the development and regulation of the secondary sexual characters |
| 3. | play a major stimulatory role in the process of spermatogenesis |
| 4. | produce catabolic effects on protein and carbohydrate metabolism |
