Nocturia, or nocturnal polyuria, is a medical term which means excessive urination at night. The two primary causes of nocturia are hormone imbalance and vesicle problems. Arginine vasopressin (AVP) and atrial natriuretic hormone (ANH) are two of the hormones that controls the body water level. AVP is an antidiuretic hormone produced by hypothalamus while ANH is released by cardiac muscle cells in response to high blood pressure. Arginine vasopressin (AVP) is an antidiuretic hormone which increases water absorption in the collecting duct systems of of kidney nephrons subsequently decreasing urine production. In the abovementioned question, nocturia is caused by decreased production of antidiuretic hormone, which is the arginine vasopressin. Nocturia, moreover, is can be caused by congestive heart disease, nephritic syndrome or liver failure. Excessive nighttime drinking and obstructive apnea can also lead to nocturia

If a grandfather and grandchild are the only two with a genetic disorder, the disorder must be __________.
Anna35 [415]

The disorder where the grandfather and the grandchild are affected is related with the X chromosome and is called Sex linked or X linked disorder.

<h3><u>Explanation:</u></h3>

All the sex linked disorders are recessive in character i.e the normal allele is dominant over the mutated allele. In females, there are 2 X chromosomes, so the mutated allele is only expressed when there are both the mutated alleles, else its masked by the dominant normal allele. But in males, there's only one X chromosome, so if a mutated allele is present, it's readily expressed.

If the Grandfather is diseased, then he must have that mutated allele in X chromosome. Through reproduction, its received by the mother, but she is normal because the other allele received from grandmother was normal. But mother has one of the X chromosomes with mutated allele, which is received by the grandson who again becomes diseased. So the disorder must be X linked disorder
