An excessive loss of body fluid can:

1. activate osmoreceptors, stimulating hypothalamus to release ADH and thereby preventing diuresis
2. switch off osmoreceptors, suppressing release of ADH promoting diuresis
3. activate osmoreceptors, stimulating hypothalamus to release ADH and thereby promoting diuresis
4. switch off osmoreceptors, suppressing release of ADH preventing diuresis

2. NaCl from descending limb of loop of Henle and of urea by collecting duct
3. NaCl from ascending limb of loop of Henle and of urea by PCT
4. NaCl from descending limb of loop of Henle and of urea by PCT
