What is the principal determinant for the release of ADH from the posterior pituitary gland? Does ADH favor the formation of dilute or concentrated urine? Explain why. Your answer: Decreased blood pressure and the need to reabsorb sodium 6. Which hormone (aldosterone or ADH) has the greater effect on urine volume? Why? Your answer: ADH. Antidiuretic Hormone (or ADH) is responsible for secreting (controlling) the water content to urea and salts in the urine. Think of ADH as a "save water" signal to your kidneys. It is therefore produced in times of water shortage, but not when there is plenty of water in the blood. So, when there is a shortage of water the pituitary gland increases the production of ADH, and when there is a large concentration of water, ADH production is lowered.
