The hormone vasopressin stimulates the kidneys to retain water.

Vasopressin or antidiuretic hormone is secreted by the posterior pituitary gland and acts on the nephron tubules which increase the reabsorption of water, thus decreasing water content in urine while increasing that of blood.

The increase in water concentration in the blood elevates blood pressure as well as blood volume which makes the urine concentrated.

It regulates the tonicity of body fluids and therefore, in response to hypertonicity stimulates the kidneys to reabsorb solute-free water and return it to the circulation from the tubules of the nephron, thus restoring the tonicity of the body fluids toward normal.

Give Jeason: si System is accepted by all nations in the world.<br>​
zubka84 [21]

it's very practical, because it's on base 10, so conversion between stuff like meters to kilometer is always just a multiplication with 10 to some power

like 1 km = 1000m (10³m)

or 1 m = 10^-3km = 0.001km

same reason for other SI units.

except time, that's base 60, or 12, or 24. that's more complicated, but there isn't any real competition
