1. If a person had their parathyroid glands removed, what impact would that have circulating levels of calcium?

   	A.	Increase
   	B.	Decrease
   	C.	No Change

Answer 1

None.as when glucose levels increase,insulin is produced to normalize the sugar levels

The statement is true as acromegaly occurs due to excess growth hormone after the closure of epiphyseal plate

Cortisol is produced by zona fasciculata of the adrenal cortex.

True.Neurohypophysis or the posterior pituitary secretes ADH and oxytocin.

Parathyroid gland produces parathormone which is secreted when calcium levels are low and normalises calcium in the body.if the gland is removed,then circulatory calcium levels decrease.
