Answer: C. Bodies of water would freeze from the bottom up.

Explanation:

The water in the form of ice exhibit low density as compared to the water in the liquid form. Hence, the ice will float over the surface of water if ice is kept in water.

But according to the given condition, the solid water that is actually the ice will be denser than the liquid water. Thus the solid water will sink at the bottom of the liquid water. As a consequence the bodies of water would freeze from the bottom.

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) and the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) work together in maintaining osmoregulatory homeo
julsineya [31]

Answer:

The correct answer will be- ADH alters the reabsorption of water and RAAS leads to the reabsorption of sodium ions.

Explanation:

To maintain the osmolarity of the blood in the human body, the body activates the RAAS pathway and the production of ADH.

RAAS pathway gets activated when the receptors sense low blood pressure in the body. This activates the production of renin from the juxtaglomerular cells of the body which converts the angiotensin to angiotensin I and later angiotensin II.

This allows the reabsorption of sodium ions in the blood through proximal and distal tubules in the nephron.  This activates the synthesis of aldosterone which increase the permeability to sodium ions.

The Antidiuretic hormone helps regulate the low blood pressure by adding aquaporins to the distal tubule membrane which help absorb the water.

Thus, ADH alters the reabsorption of water and RAAS leads to the reabsorption of sodium ions is the correct
