If both the Assertion and Reason are incorrect.

Vedclass · Answer

(D) Vasopressin,also known as anti-diuretic hormone $(ADH)$,reduces the volume of urine by increasing the reabsorption of water from the distal convoluted tubules,collecting tubules,and collecting ducts in the kidney.Failure of $ADH$ secretion leads to diabetes insipidus,which is characterized by the production of large amounts of dilute urine,not diabetes mellitus.Diabetes mellitus is caused by the deficiency or failure of insulin hormone secretion from the pancreatic islets,leading to high blood glucose levels and the presence of glucose in the urine.Therefore,the Assertion is incorrect because the condition caused by $ADH$ deficiency is diabetes insipidus,not diabetes mellitus.The Reason is also incorrect because $ADH$ decreases the volume of urine by increasing water reabsorption,rather than increasing the volume of urine.
