do does the regulatory process work at the osmotic homeostasis?
what does it result in? 4
-Vasopressin (VP, antidiuretic hormone, ADH) secretion by magnocellular neurones of supraoptic nucleus (SON) & paraventricular nucleus  of the  hypothalamus (PVN)
-Specific stimulus (increase osmolality body fluid) increase secretion into blood stream;
-Circulating VP  acts VP receptors (V2) kidney and
increase water permeability distal convoluted tubules (DCT) nephrons by insertion water channels into apical membrane tubular epithelial cells
- Increase water permeability collecting duct (CD)
Result
-Antidiuresis (conserve water)
-Movement water DCT & CD  by OSMOSIS
-Decrease urine flow
-increase urine osmolality
