What kind of endocrine gland is characterized by a low level of calcium in the blood serum and urine?
- Do you mean an endocrine gland that can lower calcium level? If this is your question, the answer is thyroid gland. It produdes calcitonin that lowers calcium level opposing the effect of parathyroid gland which increases calcium level.
- If you mean, a condition that is characterized by low level of calcium in blood, it is called hypocalcemia.

How is calcium regulated in the blood?
The body's calcium level is regulated by a gland in the endocrine system, it is called the Parathyroid Gland.
Is the under secretion of this endocrine gland that will lead to low calcium levels in the blood?
lower blood calcuium is location ?behind the thyroid gland
What gland has no duct and secretes its product directly into the blood?
The gland that has no duct and secretes its product directly into the blood is the endocrine gland. Examples of endocrine glands include the pituitary gland, thyroid gland, and adrenal gland.
The spleen is the largest endocrine gland?
That statement is incorrect. The spleen is not an endocrine gland. It is part of the immune system, acting as a blood filter and reservoir for red blood cells.

What two endocrine glands have antagonistic functions?
Thyroid and Parathyroid Glands are Antagonistic. -Thyroid gland produces Calcitonin, which lowers blood calcium levels. -Parathyroid gland produces Parathyroid Hormone (PTH), which raises blood calcium levels. There are very many "antagonistic" hormones that are produced by endocrine glands.

What endocrine glands manages the calcium level in blood stream?
The Parathyroid glands are situated on posterior side of thyroid gland. They are responsible for increasing the level of calcium ions in blood.
The spleen is the largest endocrine gland?
That statement is incorrect. The spleen is not an endocrine gland. It is part of the immune system, acting as a blood filter and reservoir for red blood cells.
How is blood calcium regulated by the endocrine system?
Blood calcium levels are regulated by the hormones parathyroid hormone (PTH) and calcitonin. PTH is released by the parathyroid glands in response to low blood calcium levels and acts to increase blood calcium levels by promoting its release from bones and increasing absorption in the gut. Calcitonin, produced by the thyroid gland, works to decrease blood calcium levels by promoting its deposition in bones.
What are glands that secrete hormones into the blood called?
endocrine glands
Does a substance made by endocrine glands pass from gland to blood stream?
No because endocrine glands are ductless. This means it travels directly from gland to blood stream.
Endocrine gland releases a hormone to regulate calcium levels in the bloodstream?
Thyroid
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."
What sentence can you use for the word endocrine?
