Solution

The correct option is B Decrease
ADH maintains the water balance and blood pressure in the body basically. If the the level of ADH in the human body is low, then this will cause the kidney to excrete too much water. Urine volume will increase and which cause the dehydration problem in the body.
So, the correct answer is 'Decrease'.
