a thick, brown-green fluid secreted by the liver which is alkaline in its reactions, containing bile salts, bile pigments, CHOLESTEROL and inorganic salts. Bile is transferred from the liver to the DUODENUM via the bile duct which in many mammals contains a reservoir called the gall bladder.
Vasopressin, also known as arginine vasopressin (AVP), antidiuretic hormone (ADH), or argipressin, is a neurohypophysial hormone found in most mammals.Its two primary functions are to retain water in the body and to constrict blood vessels.asopressin regulates the body's retention of water by acting to increase water reabsorption in the kidney's collecting ducts, the tubules which receive the very dilute urine produced by the functional unit of the kidney, the nephrons.
Pathologically, decreased ADH will lead to loss of body water by excessive urine production. ADH effects how much urine you have by controlling how much water is in your urine. Very high ADH will result in a small amount of very concentrated urine (when you pee yellow). Very low amounts of ADH will result in a lot of very dilute urine (when you pee clear). Everything else (how much urea/chemicals/etc) in your urine will be the same. Source(s): 3rd year medical student.
