Ahuman kidney filters about 200 liters of blood each day. approximately two liters of liquid and nutrient waste are excreted as urine. the remaining fluid and dissolved substances are reabsorbed and continue to circulate throughout the body. antidiuretic hormone (adh) is secreted in response to reduced plasma volume. adh targets the collecting ducts in the kidney, stimulating the insertion of aquaporins into their plasma membranes and an increased reabsorption of water. if adh secretion is inhibited, which of the following would initially result?
(a)-the number of aquaporins would increase in response to the inhibition of adh.
(b)-the person would decrease oral water intake to compensate for the inhibition of adh.
(c)-blood filtration would increase to compensate for the lack of aquaporins.
(d)-the person would produce greater amounts of dilute urine.

(d)-The person would produce greater amounts of dilute urine.

Explanation:

Inhibition of the release of ADH (or vasopressin) secretion results in less water absorption in the distal and kidney collector tubules, resulting from less aquaporin activity, reducing the diffusion of water in these tubule cells to the medullary region of the kidneys.

These processes therefore result in increased urination with more dilute urine. An example of ADH inhibition is when we drink a certain amount of ethyl alcohol found in many beverages, because the ethanol found in these compounds causes suppressive changes in the activity of this hormone.

this protocol provides a detailed procedure for co-immunoprecipitation (co-ip) to identify protein–protein interactions.

a fossil fuel is a fuel formed by natural processes, such as anaerobic decomposition of buried dead organisms, containing energy originating in ancient photosynthesis.[1] the age of the organisms and their resulting fossil fuels is typically millions of years, and sometimes exceeds 650 million years.[2] fossil fuels contain high percentages of carbon and include petroleum, coal, and natural gas.[3] other commonly used derivatives include kerosene and propane. fossil fuels range from volatile materials with low carbon to hydrogen ratios like methane, to liquids like petroleum, to nonvolatile materials composed of almost pure carbon, like anthracite coal. methane can be found in hydrocarbon fields either alone, associated with oil, or in the form of methane clathrates.

the theory that fossil fuels formed from the fossilized remains of dead plants by exposure to heat and pressure in the earth's crust over millions of years was first introduced by andreas libavius "in his 1597 alchemia [alchymia]" and later by mikhail lomonosov "as early as 1757 and certainly by 1763".[4] the first use of the term "fossil fuel" was by the german chemist caspar neumann, in english translation in 1759.[5]

in 2017 the world's primary energy sources consisted of petroleum (34%), coal (28%), natural gas (23%), amounting to an 85% share for fossil fuels in primary energy consumption in the world.[6] non-fossil sources in 2006 included nuclear (8.5%), hydroelectric (6.3%), and others (geothermal, solar, tidal, wind, wood, waste) amounting to 0.9%.[7] world energy consumption was growing at about 2.3% per year. in 2015 about 18% of worldwide consumption was from renewable sources.[8]
