Answer:
It secretes three groups of hormones; mineralocorticoids (aldosterone), glucocorticoids (cortisol), and androgens (male se hormones). Most abundant and biologically active of the mineralocorticoid hormones secreted by the adrenal cortex. The adrenal cortex secretes aldosterone when the blood pressure is low.
The inner part, or adrenal medulla, produces hormones called Catecholamines. These hormones help the body cope with physical and emotional stress by increasing the heart rate and blood pressure.
