Which hormone stimulates osteoclasts in the raising of calcium levels in the blood?
If you are looking for the one hormone that does this, then the answer is parathyroid hormone (PTH), produced in the parathyroid glands.
A more technical description is given below:
Three hormones act in the body to increase blood calcium levels to normal. These hormones are 1,25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol, parathyroid hormone (PTH), and calcitonin that originate respectively from the liver and kidneys, parathyroid glands, and thyroid glands. The first, 1,25-Dihydroxycholecalciferol (active vitamin D3), serves to increase calcium absorption from the intestine. The second, PTH, dissolves bone into the blood. The third, calcitonin, prevents the bone-derived calcium from being resorbed ("reabsorbed") into the bone from which it came via PTH. To summarize, these three hormones act in concert to raise calcium levels via external and internal routes.

What else can I help you with?
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.
How does glucagon contribute to the increase in blood glucose levels?
Glucagon is a hormone that signals the liver to release stored glucose into the bloodstream, raising blood sugar levels.
What hormone increased the amount of glucose in the bloodstream?
Amylin
What is the term for the action of raising one eyebrow called?
The term for the action of raising one eyebrow is called "eyebrow raising" or "raising an eyebrow."
Is the trait of raising one eyebrow dominant or recessive?
The trait of raising one eyebrow is considered to be a dominant trait.
What stimulates the production of thyroxin?
The production of thyroxin is primarily stimulated by thyroid-stimulating hormone (TSH) released by the pituitary gland. When levels of thyroxin decrease, the pituitary gland signals the thyroid gland to produce more thyroxin by releasing TSH. Stress, pregnancy, and certain medications can also affect the production of thyroxin.
What hormone is used to convert glucose into energy?
Cortisol stimulates the breakdown of protein into glucose, raising blood sugar, thereby providing more energy to deal with stress.
How does the body regulate calcium?
The parathyroid glands, of which there are four, and the thyroid gland are the glands that produce hormones that regulate calcium levels in the blood. Two parathyroid glands are located on the surface of the thyroid, and the other two are either on the surface or buried inside. The parathyroid produces parathyroid hormone (PTH), and the thyroid produces calcitonin. Parathyroid hormone increases calcium and calcitonin decreases calcium. Parathyroid hormone (PTH) works with vitamin D to regulate the amount of calcium that goes into bone and teeth and floats around in the blood. Normally about 90% of your body's calcium is in your skeleton. Parathyroid hormone activates the osteoclasts to break down bone. thereby raising Ca2+ levels in the blood. Calcitonin inhibits osteoclasts, decreases intestinal absorption of Ca2+, and limits renal tubular reabsorption of Ca2+ allowing it to be voided in urine. In this way, the action of calcitonin decreases blood calcium levels.

Which hormone suppress the immunity during parturition?
Spring raising phenemenon
What is the hormone of emergency causing rapid breakdow of liveee and raising blood glucose for muscle contraction?
Adrenaline.
What happens when you have an overdose of Erythropoietin?
An overdose of erythropoietin, a hormone that stimulates red blood cell production, can lead to excessive red blood cell mass, a condition known as polycythemia. This can increase blood viscosity, raising the risk of thromboembolic events such as strokes and heart attacks. Symptoms may include headaches, dizziness, and hypertension. In severe cases, it can cause cardiovascular complications and other serious health issues.
How does glucagon contribute to the increase in blood glucose levels?
Glucagon is a hormone that signals the liver to release stored glucose into the bloodstream, raising blood sugar levels.
What effect does calcium have on the heart rate?
The resting membrane potential is maintained by the distribution of positive and negative charged ions across both sides of the cell membrane. At rest, calcium concentration in cells of the heart is low as compared to the outside. At action, calcium channels in the membranes open, thereby allowing calcium to rush into the cells. So raising the heart rate.
How does EPO effect your body?
Erythropoietin (EPO) is a hormone produced by the kidneys that stimulates the production of red blood cells in the bone marrow. This increase in red blood cells enhances the blood's oxygen-carrying capacity, which can improve endurance and physical performance. However, elevated levels of EPO can lead to increased blood viscosity, raising the risk of cardiovascular issues such as hypertension and thrombosis. In sports, EPO is often misused as a doping agent to enhance athletic performance.
Is glucagon on positive feedback?
No Glucagon is a hormone produced by the alpha cells in the pancreatic islets of Langerhans that stimulates gluconeogenesis in the liver and stimulates the release of FFA (free fatty acids) from TG (triglycerides) to use it as a fuel, instead of glucose, in the other two process of cellular respiration (Krebs Cycle and electron transport chain) to produce energy, by doing so, it conserves and produce glucose at the same time; therefore raising the blood sugar level when it is low. It shows a negative feedback because the response negates the stimulus to maintain homeostasis.
Explain how antidiuretic hormone can help regulate hypotension Be specific?
it can help by increasing reabsorption of water by the kidney. With the reabsorption, blood plasma volume increases, thus raising blood pressure
