Explanation / Answer

Answers

67. FALSE

The PTH regulates the level of calcium in the body, the decreased level of calcium causes the activation of PTH and increases the level of calcium.

68. TRUE

The increased level of calcium in the blood may lead to the development of hyperthyroidism but exact mechanism not known.

69. TRUE

The elevated blood calcium levels decrease the muscle contraction or produce weakness of muscles. this due to most of the calcium enters into the blood from bones and muscles. The lack of sufficient calcium in muscles produces weakness of muscles.

70. TRUE

The magnesium is one of the elements involved in the regulation of calcium levels. The increased intake of magnesium in food decreases the calcium level in the blood to normal level.

71. TRUE

Calcitonin is also involved in regulation of calcium in the blood. calcitonin decreases the blood calcium level by decreasing the osteoclast activity of bone and increases the excretion of calcium in the urine.

72. TRUE

It also regulates the level of calcium in the blood. excess intake of Vitamin D increases the absorption of calcium into bone thereby decreases the calcium levels
