Solution
The correct option is A The volume of urine will increase.
ADH targets nephrons in the kidney to increase water reabsorption and thereby decreasing water content in urine. The inability of the neurohypophysial system to produce ADH causes excess urine production with resultant ion loss from the blood. This condition is known as diabetes insipidus (watery urine). This makes option A correct and option B incorrect. Since ADH regulates the urine volume, not its pH, option C is incorrect. Urochrome is the yellow pigment, derived from the breakdown of heme, which is deposited in blood and then is excreted by kidney with urine. This makes option D incorrect. The correct answer is A.
