Detailed Solution

The adrenal cortex can be divided into three layers, called zona reticularis (inner layer), zona fasciculata (middle layer) and zona glomerulosa (outer layer). The adrenal cortex secretes many hormones, commonly called corticoids. Corticoids, which regulate the balance of water and electrolytes in our body, are called mineralocorticoids.
