Raises Blood Calcium Level |
|
Calcitonin produced in _____, Function
|
Produced by C cells of Thyroid Gland,
Lowers Blood Calcium level |
|
Calcium Ion Set Point
Too High? Too Low? |
Normal point of Calcium Concentration
Too high - Realease of Calcitonin by C cells Too Low - Release of PTH by The Parathyroid |
|
Bone OsteoBlasts
|
Take Calcium out of Blood and deposits into Bone
|
|
Bone OsteoClasts
|
Take Calcium from bone and Puts back into Blood Stream
|
|
Effects of PTH (2)
|
Makes Osteoclasts release Calcium
Combined with Vitamin D produces Calcitrol, which makes small intestines absorb calcium |
|
Islets of Langerhans
(Cells) |
Pink dots on Pancreas
1)Beta Cells - Produce Insulin 2) Alpha cells - Produce Glucagon |
|
Effects of Insulin (5)
|
1. Cause Liver to store Sugar as Glycogen
2. Cause cells to uptake sugar 3. Use Sugar for energy 4. Protein Synthesis 5. Growth (Receptor will cause transport proteins to bring in more sugar. |
|

Unauthorized crossing of G1 Gate.
|
|
Somatomedian Molecules are often called ______
|
Insulin Like Growth Factors
|
|
