1. What stimulates the secretion of parathyroid hormone from the parathyroid gland?
A. Low bone calcium level
B. Low blood calcium level
C. Low urine calcium level
D. Elevated blood calcium level
2. As a result of the general stress response, blood concentrations of epinephrine to
A. rise and cortisol fall.
B. fall and cortisol rise.
C. and cortisol rise.
D. and cortisol fall.
Question 1: What stimulates the secretion of parathyroid hormone from the parathyroid gland?
Answer: B. Low blood calcium level.
Explanation: PTH is secreted in response to low blood serum calcium. To increase low serum Calcium level, PTH(parathyroid hormone) stimulates osteoclast activity within bone to release more ionic calcium into blood .
Question 2: As a result of the general stress response, blood concentrations of epinephrine to
Answer: C. and cortisol rise.
Explanation: In general stress response both Epinephrine and cortisol levels rise.
Epinephrine increases your heart rate, elevates your blood pressure and boosts energy supplies. Cortisol hormone, increases sugars (glucose) in the bloodstream, enhances your brain's use of glucose and increases the availability of substances that repair tissues.

1.The thyroid gland: E shrinks when a person has goiter, which is caused by an iodide deficiency. ㄷ produces thyrotropin-releasing hormone. ㄷ sequesters iodide from the diet, and synthesizes thyroxine and E stores thyroxine for up to months in the thyrotropes. 2. Increasing the concentrations of which of the following would cause the largest increase in calcium concentrations in the extracellular fluid? activating osteoblasts tE increasing the plasma concentrations of parathyroid hormone and calcitonin ㄷ activating the chondrocytes ㄷ increasing...
