The answer to this is active transport. 

This is a kind of movement of substances. Unlike diffusion or osmosis, the substances move against the concentration gradient (ie. from low concentration to high concentration). This process requires extra energy generated such as from cellular respiration. 

In addition, this process also requires a carrier protein, where it'll pick up certain substances that are needed to transport and move it to the other side. Some examples of movements of active transports are such as root hair cells of plants picking up minerals, or our small intestine absorbing nutrients digested.

mylen [45]

Answer:

Genetics is a branch of biology concerned with the study of genes, genetic variation, and heredity in organisms. Gregor Mendel, a scientist and Augustinian friar, discovered genetics in the late 19th-century. Mendel studied "trait inheritance", patterns in the way traits are handed down from parents to offspring.

If ADH levels decrease or if ADH is bound by something in your body, you would expect that:_________
algol13

Answer:

<h2>Amount of urine and plasma osmolarity increases</h2>

Explanation:

Anti-diuretic hormone or ADH is the hormone produced by the posterior part of the pituitary glands when the osmoreceptors sense the low level of water in the body.

The ADH once released binds to the ADH receptors in the collecting tubules which are usually permeable to water. ADH causes the opening of the aquaporins II in the collecting tubules which causes the reabsorption of water back in the blood.  

If ADH amount decreases then the water is nor re-absorbed in the tubules and thus is excreted out with the urine causing the production of increased concentration of urine.

Thus, Amount of urine and plasma osmolarity increases is the correct answer.
