When aldosterone is absent, Na+ reabsorption in the nephron is greatly reduced, and as 30-40g of sodium can be lost in the urine daily. The answer is decreased. Site: Anatomy and Physiology Eighth Edition by Seeley Stephens Tate.
Reabsorption of Na leads to reabsorption of water due to osmosis. ADH is synthesized in the hypothalamus and secreted by the posterior pituitary. While aldosterone is a steroid hormone secreted by the adrenal cortex of the adrenal gland and is a part of the renin-angiotension converting system.ADH is mainly responsible for maintaining the concentration of Na. thought they both acted on the kidneys to increase reabsorption of water and sodium ions into the blood and that the water reabsoprtion caused sodium reabsorption due to a concentration gradient.
