Best answer

Answer: 3. B, C and D only

Key idea: Know the effects of ADH and ANF.

A is wrong: excessive loss of fluid activates the osmoreceptors, which release ADH.
B is correct: ADH promotes water reabsorption and prevents diuresis.
C is correct: ANF causes vasodilation and lowers blood pressure.
D is correct: ADH constricts blood vessels, which raises blood pressure.
E is wrong: ADH does not decrease GFR. By constricting vessels it raises blood pressure, which can increase glomerular blood flow and GFR.

B, C and D only is option 3.
