BIO 201 Second Test

Human Anatomy & Physiology Lecture Exam 2 Notes/Terms

QuestionAnswer
When calcium ions get too low... PTH increase osteoclast activity; increase calcium ion re-absorption in kidneys; increase vitamin D - necessary for calcium ion absorption in intestinal track.
When calcium ions get too high... Calcitonin decrease osteoclast allowing osteoblast activity to dominate

In long bones, primary ossification begins near 1. and proceeds in 2. directions 1.center of diaphysis 2.both
