Which mineralocorticoid hormone secretion leads to alkalosis?

Which mineralocorticoid hormone secretion leads to alkalosis? Correct Answer Aldosterone

One bicarbonate ion enters the ECF with each sodium ion reabsorption by hydrogen ion exchange through the action of aldosterone, that transfers the reaction to the alkaline side. Thus, increased aldosterone secretion facilitates alkalosis, while acidosis is produced by its decreased secretion.
