i dont know yet
The parathyroid hormone (PTH) stimulates osteoclasts to release calcium from bones, decreases calcium loss in urine, and increases intestinal absorption of calcium. Osteoblasts build bone and PTH does not increase their activity; instead, it mainly acts on osteoclasts to raise blood - calcium levels.
