The correct Answer is:
### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding the Problem**: The question asks for the correct sequence of events regarding the regulation of kidney function, particularly in response to water loss from the body. 2. **Initial Trigger**: When there is a loss of water from the body, it leads to changes in blood volume and ionic concentration. This is the first step in the sequence. 3. **Activation of Osmoreceptors**: The changes in body fluid volume and ionic concentration stimulate osmoreceptors in the body. This is the second step. 4. **Stimulation of Hypothalamus**: The osmoreceptors then send signals to the hypothalamus, which is the third step in the sequence. 5. **Release of ADH**: The hypothalamus stimulates the neurohypophysis (posterior pituitary gland) to release Antidiuretic Hormone (ADH). This is the fourth step. 6. **Action of ADH**: ADH increases the reabsorption of water in the nephron, specifically in the proximal convoluted tubule (PCT) and distal convoluted tubule (DCT). This is the fifth step. 7. **Prevention of Diuresis**: By increasing water reabsorption, ADH prevents diuresis (loss of water), which is the final step in the sequence. 8. **Conclusion**: The correct sequence is: - Loss of water → Stimulates osmoreceptors → Stimulates hypothalamus → Stimulates neurohypophysis → Releases ADH → Increases water reabsorption in PCT and DCT → Prevents diuresis.
