Answer:

Experiment

Step-by-step explanation:

If you consume a large amount of salty food without drinking water, your body may become dehydrated.

In response to dehydration, the secretion of antidiuretic hormone (ADH) by the pituitary gland would increase. ADH helps to retain water in the body by reducing the amount of urine produced.

Therefore, the prediction is that ADH secretion would increase to conserve water and reduce urine production.
