Arrange the following events occurring during the regulation of kidney function by the hypothalamus in the correct order : A. ADH facilitates water reabsorption from latter parts of the tubule. B. Osmoreceptors are switched off and ADH release is suppressed. C. Excessive loss of fluid from the body activates osmoreceptors. D. Prevention of diuresis and increase in body fluid volume. E. Hypothalamus is stimulated to r
Options
- AC, A, E, D, B
- BE, C, A, B, D
- CC, E, A, D, B
- DC, E, D, A, B
Correct answer
C. C, E, A, D, B
Step-by-step solution
Excessive loss of fluid from the body activates osmoreceptors in the body (C). These activated receptors stimulate the hypothalamus to release antidiuretic hormone (ADH) or vasopressin from the neurohypophysis (E). ADH facilitates water reabsorption from the latter parts of the tubule (A). This reabsorption prevents diuresis and leads to an increase in body fluid volume (D). The increase in body fluid volume switches off the osmoreceptors and suppresses ADH release to complete the feedback loop (B). The correct seq
