Which fluid-related hormone helps the body to lose fluids and reduce blood pressure?
Burka [1]

Answer:

Vasopressin

Explanation:

Vasopressin is an anti-diuretic hormone. Its main function is to control the osmolality and volume of body fluids, helping the body to lose fluids. The secretory neurons are activated as a result of increased osmotic pressure or reduced blood pressure, which is also reduced by this hormone. The release of this hormone has a potent vasoconstrictor effect, causing water retention to increase, acting as an antidiuretic hormone. The increased permeability of the collecting tubules and the thick ascending branches of the Henle loop, resulting from the exposure of aquaporins to the apical membrane, enables the diffusion of water found in the tubule cells to the medullary region of the kidney.

- false evidence

The evidence may be planted and the forensic science can look at it the wrong way similar to misinterpreted evidence. usually forensic scientist can see that it has been planted but when they figure that it has then its even harder to look for the real evidence. and it would take a longer process. And if they present the false evidence in court it may take a bad turn.
