MCQ
Volume of urine is regulated by
- AAldosterone
- BAldosterone, $ADH$ and testosterone
- ✓Aldosterone and $ADH$
- D$ADH$ alone
✓
Answer
Correct option: C.
Aldosterone and $ADH$
c
(c) Water is reabsorbed in $DCT$ under the influence of $ADH$ secreated by posterior lobe of pituitary gland.
(c) Water is reabsorbed in $DCT$ under the influence of $ADH$ secreated by posterior lobe of pituitary gland.
This make the filtrate isotonic to blood plasma and aldosterone is associated with the excretion of $K+$ and $H+$ ions some $Cl-$ ions are also reabsorbed.

The functioning of the kidneys is efficiently monitored and regulated by hormonal feedback mechanisms involving the hypothalamus, JGA and to a certain extent, the heart. From given statements about JGA control, select correct option from below:
(i) It is controlled by Renin-Angiotensin mechanism.
(ii) A fall in glomerular blood flow/glomerular blood pressure/GFR can activate the JG cells to release renin.
(iii) Renin converts angiotensinogen to angiotensin I.
(iv) Angiotensin II. being a powerful vasoconstrictor, increases the glomerular blood pressure and thereby GFR.
(v) Angiotensin I activates the adrenal cortex to release aldosterone.
(vi) Aldosterone causes reabsorption of Na+ and water from the distal parts of the tubule. This also leads to an increase in blood pressure and GFR.
