parathyroid glands
The glands that regulate the body's calcium and phosphorus balance are the parathyroid glands. In humans, these 4 endocrine glands can be found in the neck.
Calcium levels are controlled by the thyroid and parathyroid. The thyroid gland releases a hormone known as calcitonin when Ca levels are high, promoting Ca uptake by bone. When Ca levels are low, parathyroid releases PTH (parathyroid hormone) causing bones to release Ca, kidneys to increase Ca uptake, and intestines to absorb more Ca.

pARATHYROID GALNS LOCATED ON THROID CONTROL AMOUNT OF CALCIUN AND PHOSPHORUS IN OUR BODY
The various glands in the body work to regulate numerous body processes. The gland that works to regulate the homeostasis of calcium is called the parathyroid gland.
yes it controls the interior of the body
They are a group of 4 or 6 glands located in the neck behind the thyroid gland that secrete parathyroid hormone to regulate calcium levels.
The parathyroid glands are small endocrine glands in the neck that produce parathyroid hormone. Humans have four parathyroid glands, which are usually located behind the thyroid gland. Parathyroid glands control the amount of calcium in the blood and within the bones. The parathyroid gland also regulates the metabolism of both calcium and phosphorus.

Calcium to Phosphorus : 2 : 1
The human body has four parathyroid glands resting around the Thyroid gland located in the neck. The Parathyroid glands regulate and control the amount of calcium in the blood. Calcium levels influence muscle and nerve functions and the parathyroid glands utilize Parathyroid Hormone (PTH) to do so.
Calcium and phosphorus are two of the minerals found in the body. The skeletal system serves as a storage place for calcium and phosphorus.
