Answer:
The correct answer is D.
Explanation:
ADH, <em>also called arginine vasopressin</em> is a hypothalamic hormone (storaged in the posterior pituitary) that <u>regulates body’s osmotic balance</u>.
ADH increases the amount of solute-free water reabsorbed from the one filtrated in the kidneys.
Also, increases peripheral vascular resistance due to the constriction of arterioles, and therefore raises blood pressure.
<u>Ethanol (alcohol)</u> reduces secretion of ADH by blocking voltage-gated calcium channels. As a result, <em>urine volume increases and this may cause dehydration.
