Answer:

Sodium helps to maintain the normal plasma osmolarity as well as blood pressure.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given points that can be applied for maintaining electroneutrality is

1 low sodium stimulates the secretion of aldosterone .

2 regulates plasma osmolarity

low sodium stimulates the secretion of aldosterone from the adrenal cortex that boost the reabsorption of Na+ ions from the glomerular filtrate

Maintaining electronutrality is the other meaning regulating plasma osmolarity.
