    The correct answer is "intake and excretion are equal." Normally, there should be equilibrium between the intake of sodium and the excreted sodium. There are regulatory mechanisms in the body that regulate the excretion of sodium in order to match it with the intake. This is to prevent hyponatremia and hypernatremia.
