Solution

(a) Climate A - Summer season
Climate B - Rainy / Winter season
(b) In summer season, the conservation of water by the body is necessary. Hence, the secretion of anti-diuretic hormone (ADH) increases which stimulates the water reabsorption by nephrons. Thus, more water is reabsorbed from the kidney tubule and the amount of urine decreases.
In rainy season or winter season, the secretion anti-diuretic hormone decreases. As a result, more water is excreted through urine.
