Correct Answer is B

Explanation

A. Jaundice, implantation: Jaundice and implantation are unrelated to testes or scrotum.

B. Temperature, fertility: The scrotum maintains a temperature slightly cooler than body temperature, which is necessary for sperm production and fertility.

C. Infection, sterility: While infection can cause sterility, the descent of the testes primarily addresses temperature regulation.

D. Cyanosis, ischemia: These are circulatory issues not directly related to testicular descent.

A. Over secretion of aldosterone B. Decreased GFR (glomerular filtration rate) C. Activation of angiotensinogen D. Deficiency of ADH

Correct Answer is D

Explanation

A. Over secretion of aldosterone: Aldosterone promotes water reabsorption, which reduces urine output.
B. Decreased GFR (glomerular filtration rate): This would lead to less urine formation, not polyuria.
C. Activation of angiotensinogen: This ultimately leads to water retention, not increased urination.
D. Deficiency of ADH: ADH (antidiuretic hormone) promotes water reabsorption. Its deficiency (as in diabetes insipidus) leads to excessive urine output.
