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.

Explanation:
Females exhibit hemophilia and colorblindness in homozygous genotype only.
The genotype of hemophiliac woman= X^hX^h
The genotype of colorblind man= X^cY
A cross between X^hX^h and X^cY would produce progeny in the following phenotype ratio= 1 Normal but carrier daughters:1 Hemophiliac son

by using your cells to make copies of themselves
When we use water, we often use too much. We waste it. When washing cars, showering, brushing our teeth etc. Because of wastefulness, there are places that don't have the luxury of being able to wash their car well, and can't water their lawns for more than a few minutes a day.
I hope I was able to help. Best of luck.
