Answer:
D. is caused by alcohol consumption
Explanation:
- ADH hormone is also called as vasopressin, it is secreted by the supraoptic nuclei of hypothalamus and released by posterior pituitary.
- The main function of ADH is to stimulate reabsorption of water from kidney tubules i.e DCT (distal convoluted tubules) and collecting duct.
- Anti diuretic means against diuresis (excess urination or loss of water). Insufficient ADH can lead to diabetes insipidus which includes the symptoms such as diuresis and dehydration but no glucose in urine.
- Alcohol suppresses the release of ADH, thus water reabsorption reduces and urine volume increases.
- Very high levels of ADH can result in dangerous conditions such as cerebral edema due to excess fluid buildup in the body.
- ADH allows the kidney to form concentrated urine while excreting normal amounts of salts. Continuous secretion of ADH may lead to hyponatremia i.e decrease of sodium levels in blood.
- Angiotensin II is released when there is low BP and it stimulates release of vasopressin/ADH to cause the vaso-constriction, there by bring the BP to normal.
Answer and Explanation: <em>You will find the graph in the attached file</em>
When changing the numbers in the vertical axis of the original graph, you will see that bars tend to get shorter than they originally were. This occurs because new numbers are much bigger than the original numbers, the proportion of the bars changes because they must represent the same information in a much bigger space. Offenlly, this is a tool very used by media to mark a tendency when informing something. So It is very important whenever looking at any graph to see what the axes are telling you because by the size of the bars you might infer something that might be different from what is really going on.
Answer:
In a diploid organism there are two copies of most genes.
The versions of the genes are called alleles.
Explanation:
Hello!
The genetic servants of a population are all variants of each of the genes present. These variables are possible thanks to the mutations that occur in the formation of the zygote (before or after fertilization).
When part of the DNA of an organism undergoes a point mutation (on one or a few nitrogenous bases) the body activates a series of responses to reverse it, however sometimes the mutation is maintained and can give rise to a change in a protein.
Sometimes and under certain circumstances (the change should not cause death or significant disadvantages in the body that is born) the mutation is maintained in the population giving rise to different alleles of the same gene.
In an organism there are two copies of each gene (genotype) but only one of them (phenotype) is expressed.
The allele of the gene that is expressed may depend on various factors but the dominant allele is usually expressed.

Answer:
Water cycle is also known as the hydrological cycle. It involves the water in water bodies such as ocean, river, lakes etc being heated up by the sun and then evaporations into the atmosphere. The evaporated water then condenses and falls back as rain into the water bodies.
The water body is always low during summer due to the water being heated and evaporated into the atmosphere and high during spring/winter due to rainfall and less evaporation.
