What are two regions of the kidney tubules that bind aldosterone?

Aldosterone is secreted in response to low extracellular sodium and acts on the distal tubule to increase the reabsorption of sodium from the urinary filtrate. I'm not sure where on the distal tubule though, if that's what you're asking...

outer three coverings are renal fascia(outermost fibrous membrane), adipose capsule(middle fatty layer which absorbs shock), renal capsule(inner fibrous layer).\nlearn it as F.A.C and F is farthermost and C as closest(and pronunce as f**k)

The first part of the renal tubule is called the proximal tubule, unless you count the glomerulus, but that is usually not considered part of the tubule, although it is the beginning of the nephron.  The proximal tubule is the place where all the glucose and much of the electrolytes are pumped back into the blood.

Sodium can cause the body to retain water.If your kidneys can't eliminate enough sodium, the sodium starts to accumulate in your blood. Because sodium attracts and holds water, your blood volume increases. Increased blood volume, in turn, makes your heart work harder to move more blood through your blood vessels, increasing pressure in your arteries. Certain diseases such as congestive heart failure, cirrhosis and chronic kidney disease can lead to an inability to regulate sodium.\n\nYour body needs some sodium to function properly. \nIt helps maintain the right balance of fluids in your body \nAssists in transmission of nerve impulses \nIt influences the contraction and relaxation of muscles

Antidiuretic hormone, also known as vasopressin, is a nine amino acid peptide secreted from the posterior pituitary. Within hypothalamic neurons, the hormone is packaged in secretory vesicles with a carrier protein called neurophysin, and both are released upon hormone secretion.\n\nThe single most important effect of antidiuretic hormone is to conserve body water by reducing the output of urine. A diuretic is an agent that increases the rate of urine formation. Injection of small amounts of antidiuretic hormone into a person or animal results in antidiuresis or decreased formation of urine, and the hormone was named for this effect.\n\nAntidiuretic hormone binds to receptors in the distal or collecting tubules of the kidney and promotes reabsorbtion of water back into the circulation. In the absense of antidiuretic hormone, the kidney tubules are virtually impermiable to water, and it flows out as urine.\n\nAntidiuretic hormone stimulates water reabsorbtion by stimulating insertion of "water channels" or aquaporins into the membranes of kidney tubules. These channels transport solute-free water through tubular cells and back into blood, leading to a decrease in plasma osmolarity and an increase osmolarity of urine. \nIn many species, high concentrations of antidiuretic hormone cause widespread constriction of arterioles, which leads to increased arterial pressure. It was for this effect that the name vasopressin was coined. In healthy humans, antidiuretic hormone has minimal pressor effects.

Blood osmolarity is referring to ECF osmolarity - they equilibrate with each other and are thus nearly identical. High osmolarity is sensed by central osmoreceptors, which prompt ADH secretion. The blood volume is a second separate signal to secrete ADH; these receptors are in the peripheral vasculature.

Along the loops of Henle within the kidney, the concentration gradient ranges from 300 - 1200 mosmol.  1200 mosmol occurs at the bottom of the loop.\n\nEverything you ever wanted to know:\nhttp://www.biol.sc.edu/courses/bio102/f99-44.html\n\nGood luck!

In hyperthyroidism,the body's metabolism is very much more quicker than normal person,so much heat is produced and there's  a lot of sweating.\nSweating leads to decease in body water (water loss is more than loss of salts) and increase in tonicity of blood,which all leads to secretion of angiotensin 2 which stimulate the thirst center in the brain to cause thirst sensation.\nAldosterone don't cause thirst.Angiotensin 2 also stimulate secretion of aldosterone too.Aldosterone is responsible for reserving body fluids and salts by decresing urine volume.

Hormone Control of Water and Salt \nWater reabsorption is controlled by the antidiuretic hormone (ADH) in negative feedback. ADH is released from the pituitary gland in the brain. Dropping levels of fluid in the blood signal the hypothalamus to cause the pituitary to release ADH into the blood. ADH acts to increase water absorption in the kidneys. This puts more water back in the blood, increasing the concentration of the urine. When too much fluid is present in the blood, sensors in the heart signal the hypothalamus to cause a reduction of the amounts of ADH in the blood. This increases the amount of water absorbed by the kidneys, producing large quantities of a more dilute urine.\n\nAldosterone, a hormone secreted by the kidneys, regulates the transfer of sodium from the nephron to the blood. When sodium levels in the blood fall, aldosterone is released into the blood, causing more sodium to pass from the nephron to the blood. This causes water to flow into the blood by osmosis. Renin is released into the blood to control aldosterone.

Kidney stones, also known as nephrolithiases, urolithiases or renal calculi, are solid accretions (crystals) of dissolved minerals in urine found inside the kidneys or ureters. They vary in size from as small as a grain of sand to as large as a grapefruit. Kidney stones typically leave the body in the urine stream; if they grow relatively large before passing (on the order of millimeters), obstruction of a ureter and distention with urine can cause severe pain most commonly felt in the flank, lower abdomen and groin. Kidney stones are unrelated to gallstones.

vitamine k secreted in the distal convulated tubules of the nephrons in the kidney. it is also secretes by bacterias like Escherichia coli in our large intestine

I know that sympathetic nerves innervate what juxtaglomerular cells that are part of the renal blood vessels.  These cells release renin in response to sympathetic stimulation.  This question is a little particular.  Because the juxtaglomerular "apparatus" includes both the vessels and the thick ascending limb of Henle. I would choose A if it was on my test, but if I could make a second guess I could say E.

Na is co-transported with the glucose in the proximal tubule.

on drinking lot of water the osmotic pressure of blood falls and excess water is then absorbed by the nephron of the kidney and excreated out to maintain the osmocity of blood

Adrenalin comes from the adrenal medulla which is situated at the top of the kidneys. This is more commonly called 'the adrenal gland', so the short answer to your question is yes.
