1. The right answer is - Hypothalamus (manufactured by the hypothalamus, stored in the pituitary gland).

Vasopressin, or antidiuretic hormone, is a peptide hormone synthesized by the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus, and released by the posterior pituitary gland (neurohypophysis).

It mainly has an anti-diuretic role in the kidney, where it causes a reabsorption of water via an action on the distal segment of the nephron during a dehydration body. Its gene is AVP located on human chromosome 20.


2. The right answer is - Increased Secretion of Vasopressin To Maintain Less Loss Of Water.

Vasopressin has an antidiuretic action: it decreases the volume of urine by increasing the water permeability of the collecting tube. It binds to the V2 receptor, which is coupled to a Gα protein, which activates a signaling cascade through the PKA. This causes the synthesis of aquaporin 2 (transmembrane pore) as well as its translocation to the apical / urinary membrane.

The image shows a magnified view of a leaf's surface with the stomata visible. What’s the significance of these structures in th
Deffense [45]

The correct answer is option (d) They allow the exchange of gases between cells in the leaf and the external environment.

Stomata are the tiny openings present in the epidermis (outer layer of cells) of the leaf. They have a pore which is guarded by the guard cells which controls the opening and closing of the stomata. Air enters and exits through the stomata.

The main funtion of stomata is to facilitate the gaseous exchange. The gas exchange that occurs when the stomata are open helps in the process of photosynthesis. During photosynthesis, carbon dioxide is taken in from the atmosphere and oxygen is released as a by-product of photosynthesis. The glucose produced is converted into the starch and stored in the leaves.

Also, water vapour diffuses through the stomata into the atmosphere by a process called the transpiration.

Thus, stomata are the structures that are mainly involved in the gaseous exchange between the cells of the leaf and the atmosphere.
