An individual has a low water level in their blood.

A simplified diagram of a kidney nephron. The diagram labels the Bowman's capsule, the loop of Henle, and a prominent collecting duct in the medulla. Water molecules (H₂O) are shown passing through the walls of the collecting duct into the surrounding capillaries.

Describe how the collecting duct of the nephron reabsorbs water to make the urine more concentrated.
