Question:
Diuresis is prevented by:
Diuresis is prevented by:
Updated On: Jan 13, 2026
- Renin from JG cell via switching off the osmoreceptors
- ANF from adrenal medulla
- Aldosterone from adrenal medulla
- Vasopressin from Neurohypophysis
Hide Solution
Verified By Collegedunia
The Correct Option is D
Solution and Explanation
Vasopressin (antidiuretic hormone) from the neurohypophysis prevents diuresis (increased urine production) by increasing water reabsorption in the kidneys.

- Given below are two statements: Statement I: In the RNA world, RNA is considered the first genetic material evolved to carry out essential life processes. RNA acts as a genetic material and also as a catalyst for some important biochemical reactions in living systems. Being reactive, RNA is unstable.
Statement II: DNA evolved from RNA and is a more stable genetic material. Its double helical strands being complementary, resist changes by evolving repair mechanisms. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below:- NEET (UG) - 2025

- Two gases A and B are filled at the same pressure in separate cylinders with movable pistons of radii \(r_A\) and \(r_B\) respectively. On supplying an equal amount of heat to both the cylinders, their pressures remain constant and their pistons are displaced by 16 cm and 9 cm respectively. If the change in their internal energies is the same, then the ratio \(r_A / r_B\) is:
