Answer #1

Question No.1

Answer :- on the plasma membrane of target cells.

Question No.2

Answer :- Principal cell

Explanation : Principal cells or chief cell secrete PTH .PTH increases serum calcium by increasing bone resorption of calcium into blood (this requires vitamin D).
Increases renal reabsorption of calcium.

Question No.3

Answer :- calcitonin

Explanation : Calcitonin Released in response to high blood calcium-->Lowers blood calcium-->osteoblast.

It Stimulate osteoblasts-->Inhibit osteoclasts-->Decrease calcium reabsorption by nephron -Result in maintain blood calcium level .
