|
What is needed in order to carry out a Homeostatic mechanism?
|
|
______is the pathway by which the signal is carried away from the receptor
|
Afferent Pathway
|
|
|

|
Name the function of Calcium in
- Cells - Muscle - Bone |
cell= to secrete hormones, enzymes
muscle= contraction (smooth,skeletal) bone= matrix substance support |
|
|
Explain what happens when Calcium levels drop?
BONES |
1. PTH ( Parathyroid Hormone) gets released by Parathyroids
2. PTH decalsifies bone and calcium is released into the blood |
|
|
Explain what happens when calcium levels drop?
Kindeys |
PTH promotes the re-absorbtion of calcium by the filtrate
by using hormones ADH Aldosterone Glucotricoids |
|
|
Explain what happens when calcium levels drop?
GI Track |
Active absorbtion of calcium by binding the vitamin D3 to PTH
|
|
