How do bone cells help maintain homeostasis?
The skeletal system contribute to homoeostasis in various ways. It produces new red blood cells to replace the old ones and also uses the osteoblasts and osteoclasts cells to maintain balance in the body.
What gland has functions in the parathyroid hormone to regulate calcium levels in the blood and tissues?
The parathyroid glands produce and secrete parathyroid hormone which regulates calcium levels in the blood. Since it increases blood calcium levels, it promotes the function of osteoclasts, which reduce the calcium in bones and promote its increase in the blood stream.
What chemical alteration of the blood stream results from emphysema?
Emphysema causes lower oxygen levels in the blood.
How are the red blood cells used in the circulatory and skeletal system?
Red blood cells are produced in bone marrow then move into the blood stream which is part of the circulatory system.
What is a stream of eletricically charged particles sent out by the crona called?
A stream of electrically charged particles that is sent out by the crona is called a cosmic ray. Such rays contain very high levels of radiation.

Solid calcium oxide is exposed to a stream of carbon dioxide gas?
Calcium carbonate forms.
How do the digestive and skeletal system work together?
The digestive system provides essential calcium requirements and other nutrients the skeletal system needs. The skeletal and digestive system are connected because they skeletal system makes the blood and if the skeleton can't make the bone the nutrients can't go to every part of our body.
How does hypocalcemia prevent insulin secretion?
To release insulin from the endocrine pancreas cells, the vesicles in the cell need calcium to bind to the internal cell membrane and eject their contents into the blood stream. If a person (or animal) is hypocalcemic (has low blood calcium levels), there isn't enough calcium in the pancreas cell to release the insulin.
How low levels of a stream can have harmful effects on wildlife in and around the stream?

What is the cause and effect of groundwater mining what impact does it have on the water table and lake or stream levels?
i don't know the cause, but the effect is that lake and stream levels will drop!!
Osteoclasts in bone tissue have the effect of raising calcium levels in the blood What?
Osteoclasts break down bone, which will essentially increase the amount of free calcium in the blood stream. Osteoblasts "build" bones from the free calcium in the blood. Calcium is involved in muscle contraction, so if you lack the necessary calcium in your diet, your body will actually break down bone material in order to obtain the necessary calcium for proper muscle function.
Disease which causes pain or stiffness in your skeletal joints is referred to as?
May be excess of uric acid in your blood stream.
What is negative feedback interaction between calcitonin and parathyroid hormone?
The parathyroid gland is the major regulator of blood Ca levels. When the Ca levels in the blood decrease, the parathyroid gland releases more parathyroid hormone. This in turn increases osteoclasts which results in more bone breakdown. this releases more Ca into the blood stream. When Ca levels in the blood increase the thyroid gland releases Calcitonin. this decreases the activity of the osteoclasts which in turn decrease the levels of Ca in the blood.
What do albumin do?
Albumin performs many functions including maintaining the osmotic pressure that causes fluid to remain within the blood stream instead of leaking out into the tissues. You can maintain a healthy albumin level by eating high levels of protein.
