What does parathyroid glands do?

Most people have four parathyroid glands. The parathyroid glands are very small in size, almost the size of a grain of rice, which are located around the surface of the thyroid gland. The parathyroid glands control calcium regulation, which is the amount of calcium that is in the blood and within the bones. The parathyroid produces a hormone called the parathyroid hormone. According to parathyroid.com, the major function of the parathyroid glands are to maintain the body's normal balance of calcium levels in the blood as well as the bones. Maintaining a normal range of parathyroid hormones also affects the nervous and muscular systems.


What function of muscle tissue does not belong ability to shorten contractility pulls on bones stretchability?

Stretchability does not belong to the functions of muscle tissue. While muscle tissue is stretchable to a certain extent, its primary function is not related to stretching or elongating. The main functions of muscle tissue are the ability to shorten or contract (known as contractility) and to pull on bones (known as pulling or moving bones).


What does an elevated parathyroid hormone level mean?

It means that for whatever reason, your parathyroid glands are trying to increase your blood's calcium level. This may be a normal response if you are hypocalcemic. However, if your calcium levels are normal (or even high) it may be the result of a malfunction of the parathyroid glands. Chronically elevated parathyroid hormone will cause your bones to release so much calcium to your blood that weak bones result.
