Question:
Which is not true of ADH?
a) released by the posterior lobe of the pituitary gland
b) increases water reabsorption
c) secretion increases when osmotic pressure in the body increases
d) increases urine volume
e) secretion decreases when you drink a lot of water
Hormones affecting kidney function:
The kidney regulates the volume of fluid in the body, the pH of the fluid, the concentration of electrolytes in the body, etc. These kidney functions are regulated by hormones, Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH), Aldosterone, Angiotensin II, and Atrial Natriuretic peptide (ANP).
