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. </em>

When texting while driving, a man crashed into a red car in front of him and felt panic. Thereafter, whenever he saw red cars, h
kompoz [17]

Answer:

This is an example of a flashback, associating a red car with an event that the man found to be traumatic. It might also be an example of post traumatic stress.

Explanation:

The events surrounding a trauma can become imprinted in the psyche. In this case, the first image the man observed after the crash, was a red car. Cognitively, he knows that the red car was just an incidental item. Emotionally imprinted though, is the image of the red car. The unconscious mind observes the red car, and makes a connection, and brings about anxiety and heightened awareness. This reaction is designed to avoid further trauma and discomfort.
