What hormone is necessary for water to be reabsorbed in the kidney?
Anti-diuretic hormone (or ADH) is released by the pituitary gland to encourage the kidneys to reabsorb water.
What is the storehouse for the hormones produced by the hypothalamus of the brain?
The Posterior Lobe of Pituitary and the HypothalamusThe posterior lobe, so far as is known, does not make any of its own hormones, but serves as a storehouse for two hormones manufactured by the hypothalamus . The hypothalamus, apart from having a role in controlling the body's autonomic nervous system, also functions as an endocrine gland, secreting its own hormones, and as a connecting link between the brain's cerebral cortex and the pituitary gland. The posterior lobe of the pituitary releases the two hormones it receives from the hypothalamus, called vasopressin and oxytocin , into the bloodstream. Vasopressin plays a role in the fluid balance of the body; oxytocin is thought to pace the onset and progress of labor during childbirth.
Endocrine glands produce hormones which are secreted directly into the extracellular space?
interfictulal balance
What are two different hormones are secreted by the pituitary glands?
Oxytocin and vasopressin are neurohypophysis hormones synthesized in the neurons of paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei of the hypothalamus and travel to the terminals in the neurohypophysis for storage and release into the vascular system. Oxytocin stimulates milk ejection and uterine smooth muscle contraction at parturition; while vasopressin affects water retention and blood pressure.
What is a body protein that is stored in a gland and secreted to an organ to restore normal body conditions or balance?
Hormone :)
What part of brain controls water balance?
Posterior pituitary gland secreting anti-diuretic hormone.
Which gland contributes to adjustment of fluid balance?
The adrenal glands which are found on top of the kidneys help to adjust fluid balance through electrolyte balance. The posterior portion of the pituitary gland secretes anti diuretic hormone which also contributes to fluid balance in the body.
What hormone made in the posterior pituitary gland works with the kidneys to maintain the body's water balance?
Antidiurectic Hormone (ADH) The answer is DD. antidiuretic hormoneADH anti diuretic hormone
What hormone is necessary for water to be reabsorbed in the kidney?

How is the production of ADH regulated?
regulated by the osmolality of the circulating blood. Osmolality refers to the concentration of dissolved chemicals (such as sodium, potassium, and chloride; together called solute) circulating in the fluid base of the blood
What hormones does the pars nervosa release?
The pars nervosa, also known as the neural lobe or posterior pituitary, releases two hormones: oxytocin and antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin. Oxytocin is involved in childbirth and breastfeeding, as well as social bonding and emotional attachment. ADH helps regulate water balance in the body by decreasing urine output and promoting water reabsorption in the kidneys.
What is the function of Adrenocorticotropic hormone?
In response to many varied stressors, cortisol is released and the ACTH or adrenocorticotrophic hormone is then released to begin to balance out and slow the release of the cortisol in the blood stream.
Why does radiation for a brain tumor place a client at risk for diabetes insipidus?
During radiation therapy for a brain tumor the hypothalamic-pituitary unit often receives significant doses of radiation with the tendency to develop long-term radiation-induced hypopituitarism (RIH) and its sequelae. The posterior portion of the pituitary gland regulates kidney function through the production of ADH, antidiuretic Hormone, which helps the regulation of water balance. If the pituitary fails to produce ADH, the patient will develop diabetes insipidus.
How do you control water balance?
Your kidneys do all the work, with some control from the pituitary gland.
What is the portion of the brain that controls the pituitary gland water balance and body temperature?
Hypothalamus
Endocrine glands produce hormones which are secreted directly into the extracellular space?
interfictulal balance
