A 42-year-old gentleman presents to his primary care physician with complaints of persistent headaches and general weakness. He was recently diagnosed with severe hypertension that has been refractory to anti-hypertensive medications. Based on clinical suspicion, a basic metabolic panel is obtained which demonstrates a sodium level of 153 mg/dl and a potassium level of 2.9 mg/dl. The hormone that is the most likely cause of this patient's presentation is normally secreted by which region of the adrenal gland?
