Describe the negative feedback processes of one hormone used

Describe the negative feedback processes of one hormone used to increase blood calcium. Draw it out for your own purposes (like we did in class), but just list the steps when entering it into D2L. For example, in cases of high blood calcium, the following steps occur: Calcitonin increases Reduces osteoclast activity Reduced Ca resorption from bone Reduced blood calcium Increases osteoblast activity Increased Ca deposition into bone Reduced blood calcium Note that one hormone did multiple things.

Solution

Parathyroid Hormone is produced by parathyroid glands and regulates the blood calcium levels in the body.

Parathyroid Hormone

An increase in Parathyroid hormone

1. causes incresed calcium levels in blood

2. causes irregularities in the functioing of nervous system

3. causes weakness of bones and fractures because calcium of bones is taken out to be released in blood.
