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.

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.
