The hypothalamus releases ADH in response to an increase in the osmolarity of the blood. With the help of ADH and the ________________, blood osmolarity is restored to proper levels.
When venous return is increased, stretch receptors in the atria of the heart are activated. This results in increased glomerular filtration. decreased urine production. increased thirst. increased ADH secretion. decreased ADH secretion.
