Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin, promotes water reabsorption in the kidneys. It is produced in the hypothalamus and released by the pituitary gland in response to increased blood osmolality (concentration of solutes in the blood) or decreased blood volume. ADH acts on the kidneys to increase the permeability of the collecting ducts, allowing more water to be reabsorbed into the bloodstream.
