You just ran a marathon and are dehydrated. How would this effect the amount of anti diuretic hormone (vasopressin) in your system? it would decrease it would increase, but only as a stored hormone in the posterior pituitary it would increase there would be no change as antidiuretic hormone is not triggered by states of hydration

A human kidney filters about 200 liters of blood each day. Approximately two liters of liquid and nutrient waste are excreted as urine. The remaining fluid and dissolved substances are reabsorbed and continue to circulate throughout the body. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is secreted in response to reduced plasma volume. ADH targets the collecting ducts in the kidney, stimulating the insertion of aquaporins into their plasma membranes and an increased reabsorption of water. If ADH secretion is inhibited, which of the following would initially result? a) The person would produce greater amounts of dilute urine. b) The number of aquaporins would increase in response to the inhibition of ADH. c) The person would decrease oral water intake to compensate for the inhibition of ADH. d) Blood filtration would increase to compensate for the lack of aquaporins.
