What is the hormone that activates Vitamin D on blood calcium levels?
Cholecalciferol is a steroid hormone that regulates body levels of calcium. It is a form of Vitamin D. Parathyroid hormone increases the concentration of calcium in the blood.
What hormone is excreted by the parathyroid glands and regulates calcium levels in the blood and tissues?
Parathyroid hormone
What is the most important hormone that regulates the amount of calcium in the blood and is released when blood calcium levels drop?
The hormone is called as parathyroid hormone. It is secreted by the parathyroid glands.
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 hormone that regulates the calcium circulation in the blood?
cortisone
What hormone pairs are antagonists that regulate blood calcium ion levels?
Parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcitonin regulate blood calcium levels. PTH increases the calcium concentration in the blood, and calcitonin decreases it.
What type of stimulation controls parathyroid release?
Negative feedback between the parathyroid glands and the blood calcium concentrations regulates parathyroid hormone secretion. As blood calcium concentration drops, more parathyroid hormone is secreted; as blood calcium concentration rises, less parathyroid hormone is secreted.
Which is greater when blood calcium levels when parathyroid hormone is increased or decreased?
When calcium levels increase, parathyroid hormone decreases. When calcium levels decrease, parathyroid hormone increases. This is known as a negative feedback system.
What pancreatic hormone stimulates elevated blood glucose levels?
The hormone Insulin regulates the body's glucose levels.
The major hormone that decreases blood calcium levels is produced in the?
Calcitonin is a hormone produced by the thyroid . This is the major hormone that acts to decrease blood calcium levels.
The hormone that works with the parathyroid hormone to regulate calcium levels in the blood is called?
Calcitonin
Which hormone works with the paraythyroid hormone to regultae calcium levels in the blood and tissues?
Calcitonin
