Two of these options are correct (A & E)

So, the correct option is D.

<h3>About ADH/Vasopressin:</h3>
  • Other name for ADH is arginine vasopressin.
  • It is a hormone produced by the brain's hypothalamus and kept in the posterior pituitary gland.
  • It instructs the kidneys on how much water to hold onto.
  • The amount of water in your blood is continuously regulated and balanced by ADH.
  • Your blood's volume and pressure increase with higher water concentration.
  • ADH helps to sustain water metabolism along with osmotic sensors and baroreceptors.
  • The concentration of particles in your blood causes osmotic sensors in the hypothalamus to respond.
  • Carbon dioxide, sodium, potassium, chloride, and other chemicals are among these particles.
  • These sensors and baroreceptors tell your kidneys to store or release water to maintain a healthy range of these substances when particle concentration is out of balance or blood pressure is too low.
  • They also control how thirsty your body feels.
  • The particular nerve cells that make anti-diuretic hormone are located in the hypothalamus, a region at the base of the brain.
  • The hormone is sent by the nerve cells to the posterior pituitary gland, where it is released into the bloodstream, via their nerve fibers (axons).
  • By influencing the kidneys and blood arteries, anti-diuretic hormone aids in maintaining blood pressure.
  • Its primary function is to decrease the volume of water excreted in the urine, so conserving your body's fluid volume.
  • This is achieved by permitting a specific region of the kidney to enable water from the urine to be reabsorbed into the body.
  • As a result, the bloodstream is replenished with more water, urine concentration increases, and water loss is decreased.

<h3> Aquaporins and ADH:</h3>
  • Antidiuretic hormone levels above a certain threshold narrow (constrict) blood arteries, raising blood pressure.
  • The only way to fully recover from a lack of bodily fluid (dehydration) is by drinking more water.
  • The aquaporin 2 protein is made according to instructions from the AQP2 gene.
  • The water molecules are transported across cell membranes by this protein, which creates a channel.
  • Collecting ducts, a network of tiny tubes that reabsorb water from the kidneys into the bloodstream, are found in the kidneys where it is discovered.
  • In order to keep the body's water balance in check, the aquaporin 2 water channel is crucial.
  • A hormone known as vasopressin or antidiuretic hormone regulates the positioning of these channels (ADH).
  • The body creates more ADH when the amount of fluid consumed is low or when there is a lot of fluid loss (for instance, through sweating).
  • Aquaporin 2 water channels are ultimately inserted into the membrane of collecting duct cells by this hormone, which sets off chemical events.
  • Due to the re-absorption of water into the bloodstream made possible by these channels, the urine is more concentrated.
  • Less ADH is created when fluid intake is sufficient. Aquaporin 2 water channels are taken out of the collecting duct cells' membrane in the absence of signals from ADH.
  • During these times, the urine is more diluted and less water is reabsorbed into the bloodstream.

KengaRu [80]
Allele frequency is determined by looking at the dominant and recessive allele of a genotype. 
Using the given, we can come up with the following computation for the allele frequency:
allele A = 100/300 allele B = 50/300 allele O = 150/300
Hence, the frequency of allele A is 0.33 or 33%, allele B is .17 or 17% and allele O is 0.50 or 50%.
