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.

Answer:
miRNA ( micro RNA )
Explanation:
The small RNA molecule that interfere with gene expression are miRNA. The miRNA is micro RNA that are non-coding molecules of RNA. These small RNA regulate gene expression after transcription (post transcription).
The miRNA binds to 3' UTR region (untranslated region ) and halt the process of protein production and thereby silencing mRNA.
