Question:
Diuresis is prevented by:
Diuresis is prevented by:
Updated On: Apr 21, 2025
- Renin from JG cell via switching off the osmoreceptors
- ANF from adrenal medulla
- Aldosterone from adrenal medulla
- Vasopressin from Neurohypophysis
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone) from the neurohypophysis prevents diuresis (increased urine production) by increasing water reabsorption in the kidneys.

- Given below are two statements:
Statement I: Fig fruit is a non-vegetarian fruit as it has enclosed fig wasps in it.
Statement II: Fig wasp and fig tree exhibit a mutual relationship as the fig wasp completes its life cycle in the fig fruit and the fig fruit gets pollinated by the fig wasp. - An oxygen cylinder of volume 30 litre has 18.20 moles of oxygen. After some oxygen is withdrawn from the cylinder, its gauge pressure drops to 11 atmospheric pressure at temperature \(27^\circ\)C. The mass of the oxygen withdrawn from the cylinder is nearly equal to: [Given, \(R = \frac{100}{12} \text{ J mol}^{-1} \text{K}^{-1}\), and molecular mass of \(O_2 = 32 \text{ g/mol}\), 1 atm pressure = \(1.01 \times 10^5 \text{ N/m}^2\)]
