Question 4 :Adrenal hormones that help regulatethe balance of minerals and water in the blood are:glucocorticoidsmineralocorticoidsproduced by the produced by theadrenal cortex. adrenal cortex. 5. Did you pick?glucocorticoids produced by the adrenal cortex. 6. Nope! Try Again! 7. Did you pick?mineralocorticoids produced by the adrenalcortex. 8. Live, Long and Prosper- The end
