What body system is adh located in?
liver?
What stores ADH?
Alcohol dehydrogenase (ADH) is an enzyme that is present in the liver and stomach primarily, as well as in smaller amounts in other tissues of the body.
What is the name of the cells in the nephron that respond to ADH and aldosterone?
The cells in the nephron that respond to ADH are called principal cells, while the cells that respond to aldosterone are called intercalated cells. These cells play a crucial role in regulating the reabsorption of water and electrolytes in the kidneys.
What hormone aldosterone or ADH has the greater effect on urine volume?
ADH decides the volume.Aldestorone involve in maintaining blood pressure.
What is the effect of ADH on the permeability of the wall of the collecting duct?
coolio
What are the target cells for adh?
The target cells for antidiuretic hormone (ADH) are the collecting duct cells in the kidney. ADH acts on these cells to increase the permeability of the collecting duct to water, which helps in water reabsorption and concentration of urine.
ADH is produced by cells within the?
ADH (antidiuretic hormone), also known as vasopressin, is produced by cells within the hypothalamus and released by the pituitary gland in response to changes in blood osmolality.
Drinking alcohol produces its diuretic effect by?
Inhibiting the release of ADH
The primary effect of antidiruetic hormone ADH is to?
lower the osmolality of the blood
Premeability to water is regulated by ADH in this structure?
Permeability to water is regulated by antidiuretic hormone (ADH) in the collecting ducts of the kidney. ADH acts on the collecting ducts to increase water reabsorption, resulting in concentrated urine production if ADH levels are high, and dilute urine production if ADH levels are low.
How would Hypothalamic tumor resulting in excess ADH production has what effect on the blood pressure?
The increased ADH (vasopressin) would cause water retention and increased volume of body fluids. This would make the heart work harder to pump the increased volume through the body resulting in higher blood pressure.
Would blood ADH levels be higher or lower than normal in a person who just completed a three mile run without drinking any water?
ADH levels would be higher because ADH retains water. Therefore the ADH levels would be high due to the fact that you have not drunken any water during the race, so your body is retaining water.
