Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Hyposecretion of both aldosterone and cortisol is a characteristic of Addison's disease. This occurs due to adrenal gland insufficiency, which can result in decreased hormone production. Hashimoto's thyroiditis, Graves' disease, and Cushing's disease involve either overproduction or abnormal immune responses affecting the thyroid or cortisol levels, not aldosterone.
