Identify the incorrect statement regarding antidiuretic hormone (ADH):

1. It is synthesized by the neurons of the hypothalamus and stored and released from the neurohypophysis.
2. It binds to receptors on the collecting duct cells and activates a cAMP second messenger system.
3. It is released during body dehydration conditions and acts on the collecting duct.
4. ADH is released when osmoreceptors in the hypothalamus sense a decrease in the blood osmolality.

Consider the two statements:
Assertion  (A): An excess of aldosterone can cause a decrease in potassium ion concentration in body fluids.
Reason (R): Aldosterone acts mainly at the renal tubules and stimulates the reabsorption of Na+ and water.
 
1. Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) does not correctly explain (A).
2. (A) is True but (R) is False.
3. Both (A) and (R) are False.
4. Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) correctly explains (A).

Given below are two statements: one is labelled as Assertion (A) and the other is labelled as Reason (R)
Assertion (A):  Ascending limb of the loop of Henle is impermeable to water and allows transport of electrolytes actively or passively. 
Reason (R):  Dilution of filtrate takes place due to efflux of electrolytes in the medullary fluid

In light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
1.  (A) is True, (R) is False
2.  (A) is False, (R) is True
3.  Both (A) and (R) are True and (R) is the correct explanation of (A)
4.  Both (A) and (R) are True but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A)
