a. posterior pituitary.b. kidneyc. anterior pituitary.d. bladdere. adrenal gland.

Respuesta :

Answer:

The correct answer will be option-B

Explanation:

Anti-diuretic hormone or ADH is the hormone produced by the hypothalamus and secreted from the posterior pituitary gland in the low water conditions.

The ADH help maintain the osmolarity and the water level in the body by binding to the receptors in the tubules of the kidney.

ADH help reduce the loss of water by increasing the permeability of the distal convoluted tubule and the collecting duct of the nephron for water. The ADH increases the transcription and insertion of the aquaporin into the membrane of these dust which helps reabsorb the water from the filtrate and thus reducing the loss of water.

Thus, Option-B is the correct answer.
