Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH) is responsible for promoting reabsorption of only water by the kidneys, reducing urine output and helping the body conserve water.

Answer: G 
 Glucocorticoids are a class of steroids produced by the adrenal gland that regulate glucose metabolism and promote water reabsorption in the kidneys. However, they also have many other effects on the body, including reducing inflammation and suppressing the immune response.

Answer: H 
 Insulin is a hormone produced by the pancreas that regulates glucose metabolism in the body. It promotes the uptake of glucose by cells and increases the storage of glucose as glycogen in the liver and muscles. While insulin does not directly affect the kidneys or water balance, it does play a role in regulating blood volume and pressure.
