ANATOMY

Detailed explanation-1: -The primary osmoreceptors that control AVP secretion and thirst are located in the anterior hypothalamus.

Detailed explanation-2: -The water concentration of the body is monitored by osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus, which detect the concentration of electrolytes in the extracellular fluid.

Detailed explanation-3: -Extracellular dehydration is also detected by baroreceptors Baroreceptors respond to decreases or increases in blood pressure by inducing or inhibiting thirst, respectively, through their projections via cranial nerves IX and X to a brainstem region called the nucleus of the solitary tract.

Detailed explanation-4: -Changes in osmolality are detected by specialized neurons called osmoreceptors in the anterior hypothalamus (Leng et al., 1985).

Detailed explanation-5: -Hypothalamic Hormones. Receptors, Angiotensin. Receptors, Cell Surface. Receptors, Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone. Receptors, Neurotransmitter. Angiotensin II. Corticotropin-Releasing Hormone.
