Solution

The correct option is A Diabetes insipidus
The antidiuretic hormone or the vasopressin increases the reabsorption of water from kidney tubules. This is to conserve the amount of water in the body. If there is insufficient production of the antidiuretic hormone leads to a condition called diabetes insipidus. During this condition urination is frequent and copious leading to loss of water form the body.
