What hormones prevents excessive water loss by promoting water reabsorption in the collecting duct?
antidiuretic hormone
When the concentration of antidiruetic hormone rises in the blood?
water channels, or aquaporins, appear in the cell membranes of the collecting duct epithelial cells promoting the reabsorption of water from the filtrate
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 hormone that is important in regulation of sodium water balance?
Aldosterone is the hormone produced by the adrenal gland which is responsible for salt (sodium) regulation of the body.
What part of the renal tubule has an elaborate countercurrent mechanism for reabsorption of sodium and water?
A part of the tubule called the Loop of Henle is involved in the reabsorption of sodium and therefore water.
Which hormone is responsible for facultative water reabsorption in the collecting ducts?
ADH is the hormone responsible for facultative water reabsorption.
What is the meaning of vasopressin?
vasopressin is an antidiuretic hormone responsible for increased permeability of the distal tubules of the kidney, increasing water reabsorption and reducing urine volume.
What Hormone stimulates the kidneys to absorb more water?
The hormone that promotes reabsorption by the kideny is Vasopressin
Is oxytocin a hormone?
Yes,it is a hormone.It is produced by hypothalamus.
What is facultative water reabsorption?
facultative water reabsorption is the reabsorption of water in the kidneys that is under the hormonal control of ADH (anti diuretic hormone) The amount of water reabsorbed is dependant on how much the body needs to reabsorb to maintain homeostasis and fluid balance.
What substance directly controls the reabsorption of water from the collecting ducts?
The antidiuretic hormone is the substance that directly controls the reabsorption of water from the collecting ducts. It is also known as vasopressin.
What hormones is also called the antidiuretic hormone?
It stimulates water reabsorption by the kidneys
What hormones prevents excessive water loss by promoting water reabsorption in the collecting duct?
antidiuretic hormone
Is reabsorption of water hormonally controlled?
Yes it is. When referring to the urinary system the ADH is the hormone that controls this.
Anti duretic hormone increases absorption of?
It increase the reabsorption of water. That is from distal convaluted tubules
Explain how antidiuretic hormone can help regulate hypotension Be specific?
it can help by increasing reabsorption of water by the kidney. With the reabsorption, blood plasma volume increases, thus raising blood pressure
How does sodium reabsorption affect water reabsorption?
If sodium reabsorption increases, water reabsorption increases as well.
