Answer to Question 1

Ans:
D, B, E, A, C

Feedback:

ADH is produced in the hypothalamus, sequestered in the pituitary, and is released in response to increased serum osmolality. Its influence on tubular cells is exerted by way of the insertion of aquaporins in the tubular membrane.

Answer to Question 2

Ans:
B, D, C, A

Feedback:

Renal regulation of pH involves the secretion of hydrogen ions into the tubular fluid, the combining of hydrogen ions with bicarbonate yielding carbonic acid, followed by the decomposition of carbonic acid into carbon dioxide and water.
