Explanation / Answer

Hypocalcemia: occurs when 1,25-(OH)2D production from the kidneys is decreased

Symptoms include seizues, muscle spasms, and increased nerve excitability

occurs during pseudohypoparathyroidism, where target tissues are hyporesponsive to PTH

a common cause if primary hyperparathyroidism

results when body fails to reaborb cacium from the gastrointestinal tract

Hypercalcemia: occurs when there is increased production of 1,25-(OH)2D production from the kidneys

Symptoms include tiredness, lethargy, muscle weakness, nausea, and vomitting

can result from excessive injeston of vitamin D

it is induced when cancer cells produce PTH-related peptide(PTHrp)

can result from losss of parathyroid gland function known as primary hypoparathyroidism
