Which hormone of the pituitary gland helps to automatically reabsorb water from the kidney?(a) Anti-diuretic hormone(b) Diuretic hormone(c) Pro-diuretic hormone(d) Pseudo-diuretic hormoneThe question was asked in an online interview.I'd like to ask this question from The Inkjet Recorders topic in portion Recording System of Biomedical Instrumentation

Answer»

The CORRECT option is (c) Pro-diuretic HORMONE

Easiest EXPLANATION: The re-absorption is partly an automatic process because the absorption of water is accurately controlled by the anti-diuretic hormone of the pituitary gland, in relation to the body’s need for water. The absorption of electrolytes such as sodium and potassium is partly controlled by the supra-renal gland and the concentration of others, like chloride and bicarbonate, is related to the acid-base balance.
