Answer:

The correct answer is urine with a lower concentration of sodium ions.

Explanation:

A hormone produced in the cortex or the outer section of the adrenal glands, which are located above the kidneys is known as aldosterone. The hormone plays an essential function in regulating the blood pressure primarily by functioning on the organs like colon and kidney to enhance the reabsorption of sodium or salt into the bloodstream and to enhance the concentration of potassium excreted in the urine.  

Along with sodium, the hormone also works to reabsorb more concentration of water, which further increases the volume of blood and thus the blood pressure. Therefore, with the increase in the levels of aldosterone, the kidneys generate urine with a lower concentration of sodium ions.
