I have looked all over the place trying to find the correct answers. Please help me

Fluid, Electrolyte, and Acid-Base Balance: Water Homeostasis
1. Below are listed the four examples of disturbances in water homeostasis. Indicate if there is an increase (↑), decrease (↓), or no change (↔) in volume and osmolarity.  Give an example of each.
Disturbance   Volume   Osmolarity      Example
Hypervolemia         
Hypovolemia         
Overhydration         
Dehydration

   a.
   b.
   c.
   d.
3. Answer the following questions on antidiuretic hormone (ADH):
   a. What is the major stimulus? _______________________
   b. What is the direct effect of the hormone? _______________________
   c. What effect will this have on plasma volume and osmolarity? _______________________
   d. What effect will this have on urine volume and osmolarity? _______________________

   a.
   b.
   c.
5. Answer the following questions on the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System.
   a. What enzyme is released from the kidney in response to decreased
   blood pressure? _______________________
   b. What enzyme converts angiotensin I to angiotensin II? ______________
   c. What are two effects of angiotensin II?

   d. How does aldosterone cause more sodium to be reabsorbed in the kidney?

   e. As a result, what happens to blood volume and blood pressure? _______
6. a. A decrease in blood volume and blood pressure will lead to a/an
   ______________ in the sympathetic nervous system (SNS).
   b. This will result in a decrease (↓), and increase (↑), or no change (↔) in             the following:
      1. ______ Afferent arteriolar constriction

      3. ______ Plasma osmolarity
      4. ______ Thirst

Seems like you posted this twice - clearly not necessary.
