Explanation:

• Glomerulus: A network of capillaries in the kidney involved in filtration, not a hollow chamber.
• Medulla: The inner part of the kidney but not a hollow chamber.
• Cortex: The outer part of the kidney, not a hollow chamber.
• Pelvis: The hollow inner chamber of the kidney that collects urine.
• Smooth muscle: A type of muscle tissue, not related to the kidney's chamber.

For the hormone question:

• Parathyroid hormone: Regulates calcium and phosphate levels.
• ADH (Antidiuretic hormone): Controls water reabsorption.
• Aldosterone: Promotes sodium reabsorption and potassium excretion.
• ANP (Atrial natriuretic peptide): Causes sodium excretion.

Answer:

• First question: Pelvis
• Second question: aldosterone
