B
ADH stimulates the adrenal glands to release aldosterone, increasing urine output.
C
ADH increases water reabsorption in the kidneys, reducing urine output.
D

Guida verificata passo dopo passo1
Understand the role of antidiuretic hormone (ADH): ADH is a hormone that helps regulate water balance in the body by influencing the kidneys.
Recognize the primary function of ADH: ADH increases the permeability of the kidney's collecting ducts to water, allowing more water to be reabsorbed back into the bloodstream.
Analyze the effect of increased water reabsorption: When more water is reabsorbed, less water is excreted as urine, leading to a decrease in urine output.
Identify the incorrect statements: ADH does not decrease water reabsorption or stimulate aldosterone release to increase urine output. It also does not inhibit renin release to increase urine output.
Conclude with the correct statement: ADH increases water reabsorption in the kidneys, which reduces urine output, helping to maintain body fluid balance.
