ADH (Antidiuretic Hormone) correct answers -Secreted by the pituitary gland
-Promotes reabsorption of water back into the blood
-Creates small amounts of dilute urine
-Released when osmolarity is high and when there is low ECF
-"Tap water hormone"
Aldosterone correct answers -Secreted by the adrenal cortex
-Promotes reabsorption of sodium and water back into the blood
-Creates a small volume of urine with a low concentration
-Released when angiotensin is released and when there is high osmolarity
-"Salt water hormone"
Isotonic Fluids correct answers -Normal saline (NaCl), Ringer's (NaClK+Ca++), and Ringer's
