9397828767 | what conditions release ADH | the conditions in the blood plasma | 7 | |
9397835182 | what happens when the blood is too concentrated | more ADH is produced more water is reabsorbed absorbed into bloodstream (because there is too much sugar and little water) more water absorbed then it means less sugar reabsorbed there is a small volume of concentrated urine in the bladder as most of it is reabsorbed into bloodstream | 8 | |
9397899355 | what happens if blood is too dilute | less ADH produced less water absorbed into bloodstream large volume of dilute urine in bladder (less of it was reabsorbed into bloodstream) | 9 |
