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

Local Homeostasis (Inflamation)
What chemical controls Inflamation?
Immuno chemicals Cytokines
local effect
What makes local control different from reflex?
Local control is restricted to one part of the body
