Which one of the following statements is correct with respect to kidney function regulation?
  1. Exposure to cold temperature stimulates $\mathrm{ADH}$ release

  3. During summer when body loses lot of water by evaporation, the release of $\mathrm{ADH}$ is suppressed
  4. When someone drinks lot of water $\mathrm{ADH}$ release is suppressed

Solution

When someone drinks lot of water which is not required by body, the osmorality of the blood will decrease. The decrease in osmorality will inhibit the release of $\mathrm{ADH}$.
