New cards
38

Calcitonin

Secreted by the thyroid gland increases osteoblast activity and decreases blood calcium level

New cards
39

Calcitonin

If blood calcium level rises beyond a set point, the thyroid releases what to tone it down and increase osteoblast activity

New cards
40

Parathyroid hormone

If blood calcium level falls below a certain. Point then the body releases what which increases osteoclast activity
