ADH (antidiuretic hormone) is responsible for facultative water reabsorption in the kidneys. It helps to regulate water balance in the body by increasing water reabsorption in the collecting ducts of the nephrons. Thyroxine and atrial natriuretic peptide are not involved in water reabsorption, while aldosterone is responsible for the reabsorption of sodium and the excretion of potassium.
