Answer:

When osmolality increases, it triggers your body to make antidiuretic hormone (ADH). This hormone tells your kidneys to keep more water inside your blood vessels and your urine becomes more concentrated. When osmolality decreases, your body doesn't make as much ADH. Your blood and urine become more diluted.
