Answer:

B: I saw it an hour ago and I didn't want to answer because there are too many ifs. I tried, but it could be wrong.

Explanation:

This is not as simple as it sounds and I have a feeling that the correct answer is in the head of the person designing the question. In other words, I could easily get it wrong.

It depends on whether the tide is going in or going out to start with. The question would be a whole lot easier if the bottle was dropped miles from shore.

A: The bottle is capped. A is certainly not true. The low density of the bottle will keep it afloat until something happens that determines it's permanent direction. Not A.

B: It will if nothing else influences it. There will always be waves around that will insure an up and down movement. This is a possible answer, but not a certain one. A five year old could not throw it very far to start with. Let's read the rest.

C: Maybe. It has happened. The bottle needs a good start and the tide going out to happen.  Let's read the last 2.

D: Not in a million. Not D.

E: It won't be still. The ocean is always moving. Not E.

I'm going to pick B, but it is not a slam dunk.

The structural component(s) of the mammalian nephron where the transcytosis of water increases due to the action of anti-diureti
kipiarov [429]
 The structural components of the mammalian nephron where the transcytosis of water increases due to the action of anti-diuretic hormone is/are the collecting duct. ADH is a hormone made by the hypothalamus in the brain and stored in the posterior pituitary gland. It acts on renal collecting ducts via V2 receptors to increase water permeability, which leads to decreased urine formation. This increases blood volume, cardiac output and arterial pressure.
