The correct answer is option (4) because, - Diuresis is prevented by vasopressin or anti-diuretic hormone from neurohypophysis or posterior pituitary. When there is excessive loss of fluid from the body the secretion of, ADH facilitates water reabsorption from latter part of renal tubules. - Option (1) is incorrect because renin from JG cells convert angiotensinogen in blood to angiotensin I and further to angiotensin II; which is a powerful vasoconstrictor and increases the glomerular blood pressure and thereby GFR. - Option (2) is incorrect because ANF causes vasodilation and thereby decrease GFR. - Option (3) is incorrect because aldosterone is released from adrenal cortex and causes reabsorption of Na+and water from distal parts of renal tubules.

Which of the following diagrams is correct with regard to the proximal $(P)$ and distal (D) tubule of the Nephron.
Choose the correct statement given below regarding juxta medullary nephron.
Given below are two statements : Statement I : In the nephron, the descending limb of loop of Henle is impermeable to water and permeable to electrolytes. Statement II : The proximal convoluted tubule is lined by simple columnar brush border epithelium and increases the surface area for reabsorption. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the option given below :
Given below are two statements: Statements I: Concentrated urine is formed due to counter current mechanism in nephron. Statement II: Counter current mechanism helps to maintain osmotic gradient in the medullary interstitium. In the light of the above statements, choose the most appropriate answer from the options given below.
Given below are two statements : one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R). Assertion (A) : Ascending limb of loop of Henle is impermeable to water and allows transport of electrolytes actively or passively. Reason (R) : Dilution of filtrate takes place due to efflux of electrolytes in the medullary fluid. In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below :
