QuestionSBA
QuestionChoice
This is incorrect. Antidiuretic hormone (ADH) is a hormone that is synthesised in the hypothalamus but secreted from the posterior pituitary gland. It travels to the kidney where it acts at the collecting duct of the nephron. Here, it increases the insertion of AQP2 channels to promote water reabsorption from the urinary filtrate.
