Q. ADH regulates the permeability of
A) Proximal convoluted tubule
B) Collecting tubule and distal convoluted tubule
C) Ascending limb of loop of Henle
D) Descending limb of loop of Henle
Explanation
Vasopressin or ADH hormone is secreted from posterior lobe of pituitary. It causes reabsorption of water in collecting tubule and distal convoluted tubule and thus, regulates the permeability and loss of water in urine (diuresis), hence the name antidiuretic or ADH.
