Question

1. which statement describes the function of the hormone called adh? it tells the ovaries to make estrogen. it tells the hypothalamus to make crh. it tells the kidneys to reabsorb water.

Explanation:

Antidiuretic hormone (ADH), also known as vasopressin, acts on the kidneys. Its main function is to increase water reabsorption in the collecting ducts of the kidneys. This helps in regulating the body's water balance. The first option is incorrect as estrogen - related functions are not related to ADH. The second option is wrong because ADH does not act on the hypothalamus to produce corticotropin - releasing hormone (CRH). ADH specifically targets the kidneys for water reabsorption.

Answer:

It tells the kidneys to reabsorb water.
