question 4 (1 point)
what happens when the plasma concentration of calcium (ca²⁺) increases?
pth (parathyroid hormoone) gets released from parafollicular c cells of the thyroid gland.
calcitonin gets released from parafollicular c cells of the thyroid gland.
pth (parathyroid hormone) gets released from the parathyroid gland.
calcitonin gets released from the parathyroid gland.
question 5 (1 point)
thyroglobulin is contained in the thyroid follicle and becomes part of the thyroid hormone (t3, t4) molecule.
true
false
For Question 4, when plasma calcium concentration increases, the body's homeostatic response is the release of calcitonin from parafollicular C - cells of the thyroid gland to decrease calcium levels. PTH is released when calcium levels are low. For Question 5, thyroglobulin in the thyroid follicle is indeed a precursor and becomes part of T3 and T4 thyroid hormone molecules.
