Compare and contrast the role of PTH hormone and mechanical forces acting on the skeleton?

both PTH and mechanical forces work together in bone remodeling. PTH determines when or if bone is to be broken down or formed. Once the PTH determines this then the mechanisms ( osteoblasts and osteoclasts) will begin to build or destroy in bone remodeling :) hope this helps!
