What does acetic acid do to calcium?
It converts the calcium into Calcium acetate with removal of hydrogen gas,Ca + 2CH3COOH = Ca(CH3COO)2 + H2
In order for the body to maintain homeostasis the chemical decomposition of food to produce energy must be followed by?
waste removal
What is the purpose of adding calcium carbonate after removal of casein?
acts as a drying agent
What is it called when a response is followed by the removal of an unpleasent event?

What thyroid hormone tends to keep calcium in the bone?
An additional hormone produced by the thyroid contributes to the regulation of blood calcium levels. Parafollicular cells produce calcitonin in response to hypercalcemia. Calcitonin stimulates movement of calcium into bone, in opposition to the effects of parathyroid hormone (PTH). However, calcitonin seems far less essential than PTH, as calcium metabolism remains clinically normal after removal of the thyroid, but not the parathyroids.
Do you have to have surgery on a calcium deposit?
Calcium deposits do not always require surgery for removal. The need for surgery would depend on the size of the calcium deposit. Drugs can be ingested to help dissolve the calcium deposit in the body, without any invasive operations.
What does calcium and chlorine make?

What is the purpose of adding calcium carbonate after removal of the casein?
Adding calcium carbonate after the removal of casein helps to increase the pH of the solution. This is important for the precipitation and separation of unwanted impurities from the liquid. It also aids in the formation of a solid precipitate, which can be easily separated from the liquid.
Removal of the parathyroid glands lead to tetany?
The parathyroid is responsible for calcium metabolism. Without the parathyroid, there is decreased calcium circulating in the blood, which leads muscles to be hyperexcitable, which leads to spams and tremors.
How does the thyroid gland effect calcium regulation?
"The amount of calcium in the blood is regulated by two organs: thyroid and parathyroid glands. Each gland produces hormones by sensing the amount of calcium in the blood. When calcium is high in the blood, the thyroid gland produces calcitonin, which results in the removal of excess calcium from the blood. When calcium is low in the blood, the parathyroid gland produces parathyroid hormone, which causes the release of calcium from bone into the blood."
