Chapter 44, Problem 2A
Your Uncle Sal likes to party. When he goes out drinking, he complains that he needs to urinate more often. You explain to him that this is because alcohol suppresses the release of the hormone

b. thyroxine, which decreases water reabsorption from the kidney.
c. ADH, which decreases water reabsorption from the kidney.
d. ADH, which increases water reabsorption from the kidney.
