How can a target cell's response to a hormone be amplified more than a millionfold?
Basically a hormone binds to an membrane receptor or a target inside of the cell, changing the conformation of the receptor. In the receptor's new conformation, it typically has a new enzymatic activity or a subunit with enzymatic activity is released or other reactions may occur. The point is, the binding of hormone to receptor acts to turn on a molecular "switch" enabling a biochemical pathway to proceed. A downstream enzyme is activated and can then activate further downstream enzymes. Each enzyme is capable of activating several downstream enzymes and in this way, a single hormone messenger can cause the activation of several times more downstream elements. Typically, a transcription factor will eventually be activated and a gene will be turned on, creating mRNA. This mRNA will be translated into protein, which further alters the cellular behavior.

Increase. ADH is an antidiuretic hormone, so it wants to maintain water inside the body. The greater presence of ADH, the more water is reabsorbed from the urine by the kidneys, and the more water enters the blood circulation. Larger blood volume means greater blood pressure.
