Detailed explanation-1: -Aldosterone signals certain organs, like your kidneys and colon, to increase the amount of sodium they send into your bloodstream or the amount of potassium released in your urine (pee). Aldosterone’s effect on sodium increase causes your body to retain water in your blood, which increases blood volume.
Detailed explanation-2: -Remember that in this setting ADH secretion will increase to conserve water, thus complementing the effect of low aldosterone levels to decrease the osmolarity of bodily fluids. The net effect on urine excretion is a decrease in the amount of urine excreted, with an increase in the osmolarity of the urine.
Detailed explanation-3: -ADH, also known as anti-diuretic hormone, acts to decrease urine production and excretion.
