When water levels in the body get too low and the body becomes dehydrated, the pituitary gland releases a
hormone called anti-diuretic hormone (adh). adh signals to the kidneys to reduce the amount of water exiting the
body in urine. with the loss of fluid volume the blood pressure can drop, so adh (also called vasopressin) causes the
blood vessels to constrict resulting in an increase in blood pressure. in this process, during periods of dehydration,
which body system is not involved in maintaining the homeostatic balance of fluid volume?

Monarch butterflies have brightly colored orange wings with black patterns on them, making them easily visible to birds that eat butterflies and moths, yet birds rarely eat the monarchs. likewise, the monarch caterpillars are brightly striped yellow and white and black, and they also are rarely eaten by birds, although some wasps will attack them and feed them to their young. what can be inferred from these observations? monarchs must threaten and attack birds, but not wasps. monarchs have a way of discouraging bird predation that does not involve hiding. monarchs’ wings are so colorful that most birds must find them difficult to eat. monarchs lay more eggs than other less conspicuous butterflies.
