Excretion of dilute urine requires
| 1. | relative permeability of the distal tubule to water |
| 2. | transport of sodium and chloride ions out of the descending loop of Henle |
| 3. | the presence of ADH |
| 4. | impermeability of the collecting tubule to water |

Consider the given two statements:
| Assertion (A): | The ascending limb of loop of Henle is also called the diluting segment of the nephron. |
| Reason (R): | In the ascending portion, the loop becomes impermeable to water and the cells of the loop actively reabsorb solutes from the luminal fluid. |
