In a nutshell, Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) causes the kidneys to retain water instead of excreting it. In your case, because the amount of ADH is increased, the amount of water retained in the body is also increased. The increased water enters blood vessels and increases blood pressure. (Like water in a pipe~more fluid=more pressure) Hope this helped!

What effect does increased adh have on the renal tubules?

Increased ADH (antidiuretic hormone) causes the renal tubules to become more permeable to water, leading to increased reabsorption of water back into the bloodstream. This results in decreased urine output, which helps to conserve water in the body.


What is the effect of alcohol to antidiuretic hormone secretion?

Alcohol inhibits the release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) from the pituitary gland, leading to increased urine production and dehydration. This can contribute to the diuretic effect of alcohol and can lead to increased frequency of urination and potentially disrupt the body's water balance.


What is the effect of antidiuretic hormone on potassium concentration and excretion?

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) decreases the amount of sodium in your body and when ever sodium levels go down potassium levels go up (same is true for visa versa) so the amount of Potassium should increase when there is an increase in ADH.


How would Hypothalamic tumor resulting in excess ADH production has what effect on the blood pressure?

The increased ADH (vasopressin) would cause water retention and increased volume of body fluids. This would make the heart work harder to pump the increased volume through the body resulting in higher blood pressure.


What hormone dilates bronchioles increases heart rate?

There is not an actual hormone which increases blood pressure. However, the hormone adrenaline is secreted by the pituitary gland and has the effect of speeding up the contraction of the heart muscle. In turn this leads to increased blood pressure due to Fick's Law. The stroke volume of the heart has increased so more blood is being forced through the network of blood vessels


What are three hormones that regulate the urine volume State where each is made and the specific effect on urine volume?

The 3 hormones that are produced to regulate urine are Aldosterone, AHD (antidiuretic hormone), and ANH (atrial natriuretic hormone). The Aldosterone is released when the blood pressure of the kidney is low. Aldosterones main purpose is to retain sodium and water or the reabsoption of salt. It is secreted by the adrenal cortex (adrenal glands). Antidiuretic hormone is a peptide hormone and is made by the hypothalamus gland it regulates the body's retention of water. A decrease is blood pressure triggers the release of the hormone from the posterior pituitary gland. Atrial Nariuretic hormone is secreted by the heart cells and regulates fluids in the body to help maintain homeostasis. Released ANH causes the kidneys to secret more sodium and lose more water.


What are the effects of ADH on water balance in the blood?

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) helps regulate water balance in the blood by increasing the permeability of the kidneys to water, allowing them to reabsorb more water back into the bloodstream. This helps in conserving water and concentrating the urine, ultimately reducing the amount of water lost in urine and maintaining blood volume and pressure within a narrow range.


What is the effect of ecstasy on ADH?

Ecstasy can increase the release of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) which can lead to water retention and hyponatremia (low sodium levels). This can result in symptoms such as confusion, nausea, and seizures, and in severe cases can be life-threatening.
