While more cost-effective, boiling water reactors are disadvantageous because - C: they require much more water than other types of reactors

The boiling water reactor needs more water but still it has a major advantage as its overall thermal efficiency is greater than other reactors. This reactor uses more water as a coolant to cool down the fuel and also to heat up the steam.

adoni [48]

1. The right answer is - Hypothalamus (manufactured by the hypothalamus, stored in the pituitary gland).

Vasopressin, or antidiuretic hormone, is a peptide hormone synthesized by the supraoptic and paraventricular nuclei of the hypothalamus, and released by the posterior pituitary gland (neurohypophysis).

It mainly has an anti-diuretic role in the kidney, where it causes a reabsorption of water via an action on the distal segment of the nephron during a dehydration body. Its gene is AVP located on human chromosome 20.


2. The right answer is - Increased Secretion of Vasopressin To Maintain Less Loss Of Water.

Vasopressin has an antidiuretic action: it decreases the volume of urine by increasing the water permeability of the collecting tube. It binds to the V2 receptor, which is coupled to a Gα protein, which activates a signaling cascade through the PKA. This causes the synthesis of aquaporin 2 (transmembrane pore) as well as its translocation to the apical / urinary membrane.
